Our church is a community of worship and inquiry.

Our mission is to build from the heritage of our religious experience and the living truths of the world a cohesive set of ethical and spiritual values and to make those values live.

We covenant:

  • to enact social justice and to love our planet,
  • to accept and care for each other,
  • to inspire and guide people of all ages,
  • and to be a source of joy, challenge, serenity and compassion.

Enriched by our diversity and needful of one another, we unite to sustain this place of beauty, hope, healing and celebration.

Choosing What We Worship

Ralph Waldo Emerson, in his younger years a Unitarian minister, wrote, “A person will worship something—have no doubt about that. We may think our tribute is paid in secret in the dark recesses of our hearts... but it will out. That which dominates our imaginations and our thoughts will determine our lives and character. Therefore, it behooves us to be careful what we worship, for what we are worshipping we are becoming.” In a world where consumption, financial gain, power and competition tend to shape the common culture, it is all the more important that we choose carefully; that we intentionally shape and clarify what centers our lives; that we experience worship.

Webside Pulpit

“The complexities of adult life get in the way of the truth. The great philosophers have always been able to clear away the complexities and see simple distinctions—simple once they are stated, vastly difficult before. If we are to follow them we too must be childishly simple in our questions—and maturely wise in our... replies.”

~Mortimer J. Adler (born December 28, 1902)
