This thesis examines the history of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Lakeland, Florida as a women’s history. It is argued that sexism prevented generative action to grow the faith in the 1920s. The fellowship movement in the 1950s provided a paradigm shift for how to do church. This case study examines the importance of the fellowship strategy in supporting growth and strengthening women’s leadership to the point that a congregation could be sustained. This thesis makes the claim that the fellowship movement played a significant role in flattening the gender hierarchy, allowing for Unitarian Universalism to flourish in Lakeland. The fellowship movement was a successful growth strategy because of the presence of women. This study of women’s history in one congregation hopes to contribute to our understanding of our Unitarian Universalist religious history.
