We are brave, curious, and compassionate thinkers and doers. We are diverse in faith, ethnicity, history and spirituality, but aligned in our desire to make a difference for the good. We have a track record of standing on the side of love, justice, and peace.
We have radical roots and a history as self-motivated spiritual people: we think for ourselves and recognize that life experience influences our beliefs more than anything.
We need not think alike to love alike. We are people of many beliefs and backgrounds: people with a religious background, people with none, people who believe in a God, people who don’t, and people who let the mystery be.
We are Unitarian Universalist and Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Humanist, Jewish, Muslim, Pagan, atheist and agnostic, believers in God, and more.
On the forefront of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer inclusion for more than 40 years, we are people of all sexual orientations and gender identities.
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!
Our Historical Building
On Nov. 21, 1827 the folks at the 2nd Parish Unitarian Church dedicated their Meeting House. Members and townspeople came to hear the words of Rev. Greenwood as he delivered the inaugural sermon and presided over the installation of the first minister, Rev. Tracy. The Meeting House was chilly, heated only by a pot bellied wood stove in the back. Pews were heated by charcoal braziers brought in by each family. Fur robes and homemade quilts were in abundance and everyone lifted their feet off the cold floor and put them on the foot rests in each pew.
