WELCOME!

We are a welcoming and inclusive community of faith. We are home to the spiritual-but-not-religious, to the religiously unaffiliated, to current and former members of other faith traditions, and to life-long UUs. We believe in the divinity of the human spirit.

Our faith is rooted in The Seven UU Principles.

Please explore our site, and reach out to us if you have questions or would like more information. We hope that you will find something meaningful, something to feed your spirit, something that speaks to your heart and nourishes your soul.
