Welcome to First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh

This Sunday

“The Power of Fear”

Livestreamed at 10:30 am Fear is used as a primary tool to motivate people to act.  Politicians, advertisers, mothers and clergy are all master users of fear.  Come this Sunday, and I promise to instill some safeguards to keep you safe from fear mongers. 

Order of Service

Share the Plate

 This August, we will share the plate with UUJustice PA . The Vision of UUJustice PA is: Pennsylvania UUs are aware of justice issues and are called to speak and take action that leads to a better Commonwealth. The Mission Statement is: Pursue justice by voting, advocating, and making just public policies. It is one of 28 state-based UU advocacy groups working to uphold our UU values in our state governments.
