Hi Shahab,

Thanks for your question! The UUA keeps track its membership going back to 1961. For 2009 we counted 221,367 adults and children who are members of the UUA. This includes members of American congregations, some Canadian congregations, some in the Philippines and a few other countries. You can find more on this at http://www.uua.org/documents/info/uua_membership_stats.pdf.

It is worth noting that data on the total number of Unitarian Universalists (UUs) can be very different depending on how you measure ‘being a Unitarian Universalist.' ... Vis mer

A 2008 UU World article described how data from the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life comes from people who self-identify as UU, not people who are members of a congregation or the UUA. Because we only count actual members—and not just people who consider themselves to be UUs—our number tends to be lower. You can read more about this at http://www.uuworld.org/ideas/articles/108007.shtml.
