Who We Are
In Unitarian Universalism, you can bring your whole self: your full identity, your questioning mind, your expansive heart. Our free-thinking religion is non-creedal and committed to the free and responsible search for truth and meaning.
We are brave, curious and compassionate thinkers and doers. We foster spirituality and community beyond boundaries, working for more justice and more love in our own lives and in the world. We are people of all ages, backgrounds, and beliefs, sexual orientations and gender identities, aligned in our desire to make a difference for the good.
We are united in our broad and inclusive outlook, and in our values, as expressed in our Seven Principles, which are grounded in the humanistic teachings of the world’s religions. We are united in shared experience: our open and stirring worship services, religious education, and rites of passage; our work for social justice; our quest to include the marginalized; our expressions of love.
Together, we create a force more powerful than one person or one belief system. As Unitarian Universalists, we do not have to check our personal background and beliefs at the door: we join together on a journey that honors everywhere we’ve been before.
Our spirituality is unbounded, drawing from sacred texts and science, nature and philosophy, personal experience and ancient tradition as described in our Six Sources.
We think for ourselves, and reflect together, about important questions:
- The existence of a Higher Power
- Life and Death
- Sacred Texts
- Worship and Inspiration
- Prayer and Spiritual Practices
We welcome you: your whole self, with all your truths and your doubts, your worries and your hopes. Join us on this extraordinary adventure of faith. Get involved!
