Welcome to First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh

This Sunday

“The Purpose of Religion”

Livestreamed at 10:30 am Some say the purpose of religion is salvation.  Others say religion must repair the world, and still others say religion must hold a mirror of truth.  What if the purpose of religion is simply to cope with being alive?  

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.
