Welcome to First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh

This Sunday

MARATHON SUNDAY: ALTERNATIVE SERVICE!

  Join us for a labyrinth walk at First Unitarian led by Alice Carnes. Stay afterward for our regularly scheduled Social Hour to enjoy coffee, refreshments, and conversation with all your friends (who also made it through the Marathon route)!
