Welcome to First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh

This Sunday

  A Mitzvah of Reconciliation  

Livestreamed at 10:30 am It is our annual multigenerational Ingathering worship service.  Our Theme of the Month is Welcome, leading us to reflect and then act upon how to be welcoming to the known and unknown events of life.  Please bring a small sample of water from home, your favorite body of water or a random puddle greeting your day. 

Order of Service

Share the Plate

Share the Plate for September is The A. Philip Randolph Institute
The A. Philip Randolph Institute was founded nationally in 1965 to carry forward Randolph’s coalition between labor and civil rights. Randolph the nation’s first predominantly Black labor union, and was a principal organizer of the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. The Pittsburgh chapter opened in August 1968 as one of APRI’s earliest and has organized for jobs, justice, and equity in Southwestern Pennsylvania.
