Welcome to First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh

This Sunday

The Anger Party

As we explore love, anger needs to join the party.  What’s love without anger and its pithy, hate-filled resentment?  Also livestreamed on YouTube.

Order of Service

October’s Share the Plate

The Pennsylvania Interfaith Impact Network (PIIN) is a grassroots coalition of faith congregations, organizations, and individuals committed to building power for justice in Southwestern Pennsylvania.  Building potent relationships, training leaders, negotiating successfully, and publicly demonstrating its power, PIIN influences policy and practice to create the conditions for flourishing, just communities. First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh was one of the founding members of PIIN over 26 years ago. Learn more.
