ORIENTATION and VOICES OF A LIBERAL FAITH

"Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion born of the Jewish and Christian traditions. We keep our minds open to the religious questions people have struggled with in all times and places. We believe that personal experience, conscience, and reason should be the final authorities in religion. In the end religious authority lies not in a book, person, or institution, but in ourselves. We put religious insights to the test of our hearts and minds. We uphold the free search for truth. We will not be bound by a statement of belief. We do not ask anyone to subscribe to a creed. Ours is a free faith.”

From We are Unitarian Universalists by Marta Flanagan

Sunday Visitors

We hope the time you spend with us on Sunday mornings will provide you with hope, challenge, reassurance, and encouragement. We hope your time at First Unitarian will provide you with connections to other people and with the highest purpose that dwells within you.

Children are invited to stay with you for the first part of our worship services and then attend age-appropriate classes.

We have a nursery for preschoolers.

The "crying room" for folks with fussy infants is located to the rear of the Sanctuary adjacent to the elevator. There is a loudspeaker in the room so that you and your infant can continue to hear the service.

Hearing aid devices are available in the church office. We ask that you return them to the office following the service.

As a Welcoming Congregation, First Unitarian Church welcomes the presence of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender persons in all areas of church life.
