Get to Know Us First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh has been providing a liberal religious presence in Pittsburgh since 1890. We are located at the corner of Morewood and Ellsworth Avenues in Shadyside. The heart of our mission is to promote love, reason and freedom in religion, to foster lifelong spiritual growth, and to act for social justice. We encourage seekers of all faiths, nationalities, races, genders, ages, abilities and sexual orientations to visit our congregation. We hope that you will find the spiritual home that you are seeking. We are a religious community founded on individual freedom with responsibility and openness to truth wherever it may be found. In the fullest expression of our faith, we seek to support each other in the quest for meaning, in the celebration and enrichment of our common life and in our commitment to enhance the quality of life for all. Guided by individual conscience and wisdom from many sources, we gather in worship and service to nourish the spirit, work for justice, and celebrate the divine in all. View Voices
of a Liberal Faith to get started!  In May at First Unitarian Church Sunday Celebrations & Events

We offer classes during both our 9:30 and 11:00 am Sunday services. At the 9:30 am service there are classes from preschool through 6th grade. At the 11:00 am service there are preschool through Senior High classes. Classes run concurrently with the service. Every Sunday
at both 9:30 and 11:00 am children up to 7th grade attend the first part
of the service with their families and are dismissed to class after 15-20
minutes. Social Justice Council The Purpose of the Social Justice Council is to aid
members in translating First Church’s mission statement “to
foster a more compassionate and just world and to affirm and promote justice
equity and compassion” and its covenanted “goal of world community
with peace, liberty and justice for all” into action with and on
behalf of the church. The Social Justice Council provides opportunities
for awareness and action for issues at the Congregational, Regional, Denominational,
and International level.
