The congregation at First Unitarian Church brings together a wide diversity of beliefs and backgrounds. We have chosen to share our religious journey not only in spite of, but because of, the differences we bring to our spiritual search, though we realize that this can bring ambiguity and conflict at times. We're not all on the same path, nor do we expect to arrive at the same destination. We identify with a wide variety of beliefs, ranging from theistic to nontheistic to atheistic beliefs, from humanism to Unitarian Christianity, and including earth-centered and Eastern-focused practices. Members across the spectrum feel keenly that this range of beliefs needs to be acknowledged in such a way that we can all call our church home. Our primary objective is to sustain a humanizing community of concern in which deep, troubling questions may be fearlessly addressed, the mind freed, and the soul nourished. We strive to be a caring community, supportive of the individuals within, involved in the world without. We have adopted an Identity Statement to formalize our relationship to each other and to the larger community of which we are a part.
