We are a spiritually and culturally diverse community dedicated to empowering our members toward integrity, joy, and service for those in the greatest need in our host community of San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico.
We do this by granting about one half of our income - each year - to well-vetted social service agencies that address poverty. Clean water, education, food scarcity, housing, health, and sustainable living initiatives are examples of projects we have funded. In addition, we encourage volunteerism with community organizations.
In addition to continuing live Zoom services, UUFSMA has returned to limited in-person Sunday services. Members and friends may attend in-person services at the Hotel Aldea by contacting info.uufsma@gmail.com for important safety guidelines that must be followed. NO RESERVATIONS ARE NECESSARY and as long as seats remain on Sunday morning, guests who show their vaccination card and wear a mask can join the in-person service. Our Fellowship welcomes people of all ages, races, religions, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
We advise our members and friends to follow the advice of reputable public health authorities, such as the Centers for Disease Control, and to contact our Minister or Care Team for any needed assistance.

The UUFSMA Social Action Committee (SAC) harnesses the energy of our congregation to improve the quality of life for Mexicans in need in the San Miguel de Allende area through gifts of time, talent and treasure.
Since 2002, we have administered a grant program for nonprofit organizations to achieve that mission. Over time, we have committed to giving about half of our annual budget to local Nongovernmental Organizations. |
