Welcome to First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh

This Sunday

“Becoming Better Angels”

Livestreamed  at 10:30 am Honoring and celebrating our transgender family and friends feels more important than ever.  How we do it is both essential and complicated.  Let us gather on this day of honoring those who died for our freedom, and ask how we can continue to protect the freedom for everyone?
