Nurturing the Human Spirit for a World Made Whole

With historical roots in the Jewish and Christian traditions, Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion that keeps an open mind about the religious questions people have always struggled to resolve. We affirm the dignity of all persons, and we believe that personal experience, conscience, and reason should be the final authorities in the search for truth. Member congregations of the Unitarian Universalist Association covenant to affirm and promote the Seven Principles of Unitarian Universalism:

The inherent worth and dignity of every person
Justice. equity, and compassion in human relations
Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations
A free and responsible search for truth and meaning
The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large
The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all
Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part

UCE is a welcoming congregation affirming the worth and dignity of all people.
