Unitarian Universalist Membership Statistics 2020 Show Continued Decline Of The Tiny Declining Fringe Religion aka Unitarian Universalism
Every year at around this time, the member congregations of the Unitarian Universalist Association aka UUA are supposed to have officially certified their membership in the UUA. In recent years, indeed for the last decade or more, the number of Unitarian Universalist congregations that are officially listed as being certified UUA congregations is somewhat below the 1000+ congregations that the UUA claims as members in "the Association". At present, 3 days after the February 3rd, 2020, deadline for certification, the number of UUA congregations that are officially certified as such is 960. This number may increase somewhat in the coming months as UUA congregations that failed to certify their membership before the February 3rd, 2020 deadline belatedly do so, but it is UNlikely that all of the Unitarian Universalist congregations that are currently listed as "not certified" will certify their membership in the UUA in the coming months. In fact a good number of the 69 (former) UUA congregations that have not certified their membership in the UUA this year have been listed as NOT certified for some years now. Even if all 69 of the currently NOT certified UUA congregations actually do certify their membership in the UUA this year, there will only be 1029 certified UUA congregations in the U*U World, and indeed the "real world".
9 Canadian congregations are listed as "not certified" UUA congregations.

Didn't Canadian Unitarian Universalist churches. i.e. member congregations
of the Canadian Unitarian Council ostensibly separate from the UUA in 2006?
I am actually quite gratified to see that the Lakeshore Unitarian Universalist Congregation, in Lachine, Québec, Canada, is listed among 7 Canadian Unitarian Universalist congregations that have (re)certified their membership in the UUA for 2020. Hopefully, I can persuade the leadership of the Lakeshore Unitarian Universalist Congregation aka LUUC, and the other 6 Canadian Unitarian Universalist congregations, to demand that the Rev. Susan Frederick-Gray led UUA must formally withdraw the false accusation of "blasphemous libel" that the Rev. Dr. Peter "Beyond Belief" Morales led UUA brought against Yours Truly on "Less Than Good" Friday June 1st, of 2012. Hopefully, with some persuasion from the 7 "less than lucky" Canadian congregations that are currently certified members of the UUA, the Rev. Susan Frederick-Gray led UUA will finally get around to officially repudiating the UUA's historic UNethical (indeed borderline criminal...) abusive misuse of Canada's archaic (and since repealed) anti-blasphemy law that not only brought an ignominious Big Fat U*U End to the centuries old Unitarian*Universalist tradition of opposing blasphemy laws, in utterly shameful UUA clergy sex abuse cover-up legal bullying that clearly sought to intimidate Yours Truly into "memory holing" The Emerson Avenger blog posts that tell the readily verifiable Truth about "such despicable crimes as pedophilia and rape" most certainly committed by "certain Unitarian Universalist ministers" (to say nothing of certain Unitarian Universalist Religious Educators...), but even somewhat inadvertently deemed "such despicable crimes as pedophilia and rape" to be sacred and holy to Unitarian Universalism, at least when "such despicable crimes" are committed by Unitarian Universalist ministers. . . Doh!
