ALL SOULS CHURCH

What ALL SOULS CHURCH does

All Souls Unitarian Church is a private religious nonprofit organization headquartered at 2952 South Peoria Avenue in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on a 5-acre Maple Ridge campus containing a 1956 New England-style sanctuary that is a recognized Tulsa landmark. Founded in 1921 in the wake of the Tulsa Race Massacre, the church is the largest Unitarian Universalist congregation in the United States, with more than 1,700 active members in Tulsa and around the world. The organization operates a comprehensive programming portfolio that includes two Sunday worship services (Traditional Unitarian Universalist at 10:00 AM and The Point Humanist Hour at 11:30 AM), Wednesday Community Connections, a multi-tiered music program, Coming of Age for 9th graders, a week-long Summer Camp, Our Whole Lives sexuality education, 24/7 pastoral care, justice teams, refugee relief, global outreach (Guatemala microcredit and school-building), and a Community Resource Bank serving 2,900+ families annually.

The church's revenue model is donation-driven, anchored by voluntary pledges to the Operating Fund, weekly plate offerings (redistributed to 50+ organizations annually), and a Capital Campaign for historic building renewal. Secondary revenue streams include facility rentals (Sanctuary, Chapel, Emerson Hall, Memorial Garden, classrooms) priced $40–$200+ based on membership status, a sliding-scale Wednesday dinner ($5–$20), and paid workshops such as the Conscious Inclusion Program ($25–$100). Distribution is hybrid: in-person on the Tulsa campus combined with live streaming on Facebook, YouTube (1,500+ archived videos since 2008), and Zoom, plus an 'All Souls Everywhere' remote membership option for participants beyond 50 miles. Technology is standard SaaS — Google Analytics, Zoom, YouTube, Facebook — with no proprietary AI or custom platform beyond a basic church website. The organization is governed by a Board of Trustees and led by multiple ministers and a small employed staff of executives and program directors.
