Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion born of the Jewish and Christian traditions. We keep our minds open to the religious questions people have struggled with in all times and places. 

We uphold the free search for truth. We will not be bound by a statement of belief. We do not ask anyone to subscribe to a creed. You bring your whole self to our Fellowship and you are embraced and welcomed as you are.

We believe that religious wisdom is ever changing. Human understanding of life and death, the world and its mysteries is never final. We celebrate unfolding truths known to teachers, prophets, and sages throughout ages. 

We affirm the worth of every person. We believe people should be encouraged to think for themselves. We know people differ in their opinions, choices, and identities, and we believe these differences should be honored.

We seek to act as a moral force in the world, believing that ethical living is the supreme witness of religion. The here and now and the effects our actions will have on future generations, deeply concern us. We know that our relationships with one another, with the diverse peoples, ethnicities and nations, should be governed by justice, equity, and compassion.

The best way to get to know us, is to come, see, think,

and explore with us. A warm welcome awaits you.

All are welcome!

She will speaking on the "The Amen Effect," the topic of her best-selling book by that same title. In a time of loneliness and isolation, social rupture and alienation, what will it take to mend our broken hearts and rebuild our society? Rabbi Brous argues that some of the most important work of our time, as instinctual as it is counter-cultural, is to find our way to one other in celebration, in sorrow, and in solidarity, to show up for each other in moments of joy and pain, vulnerability and possibility, to invest in relationships of shared purpose and build communities of care.
