A Unitarian Universalist Congregation

Gather the spirit, harvest the power. Our sep'rate fires will kindle one flame. Witness the mystery of this hour. Our trials in this light appear all the same. -J. Scott
This is the mission of our faith: To teach the fragile art of hospitality; To revere both the critical mind and the generous heart; To prove that diversity need not mean divisiveness; And to witness to all that we must hold the whole world in our hands. - W.F. Shultz
These are the days that have been given to us; Let us rejoice and be glad in them. These are the days of our lives; Let us live them well in love and service. -W.R. Murray
We are Unitarian Universalists, people of open minds, loving hearts, and welcoming hands. - UU Children's affirmation
Faith is love taking the form of aspiration. - W.E. Channing
Unitarian Universalists celebrate diversity, have a rich tradition, and covenant and affirm to promote seven principles.
