We Gather Together

Unitarian Universalists nurture their spirits in as wide a variety of ways as are our beliefs. We find it in the quiet of our hearts, in the voices of fellowship, in the experience of worship together, in the work of justice, in the wonder of nature. Weekly worship together is just one way we nurture our spiritual growth together. We gather together for inspiration, reflection, connection, and religious education.

  • Dress:  You will find the atmosphere to be fairly casual, with a range of clothing at Sunday services from jeans to traditional “church clothes.”  This is a “come as you are” church.
  • Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors: Our church is a Welcoming Congregation that truly believes in and, more importantly, practices this motto. We respect people from different walks and stages of life.  We are also very proud of including lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ+) people in our membership. We are always striving to be an inclusive community.
