Imagine a religion that embraces many different beliefs… including yours.

Welcome!

Thank you for visiting our website.

We hope you will visit us this Sunday morning!

We are a theologically diverse congregation. Our shared worship is framed around our belief that how we live together - how we take care of each other and the earth - is critically important, and we strive to live our lives guided by compassion and a commitment to social justice. We also commit to each other that we will respect and support each person's sincere, responsible search for truth and meaning, and we recognize that this is an ever-evolving journey. We are an ethical and liberal religious community dedicated to promoting the ongoing search for truth and to affirming the inherent worth and dignity of every individual.

We welcome all who would like to be part of a caring, open-minded, spiritual community.

Our Services

Please join us on Sunday mornings for services from 10:45 a.m. to noon. Children have religious education classes at the same time. Everyone is invited to stay after the service for light refreshments and conversation. Although we do not hold Sunday services in the summer (mid June to late August) please check our News & Events page for summer activities. This year services will resume on August 30.

Upcoming Services

Sunday, June 6 (10:45)
Rev. Terry Ellen:
"Celebrating Flowers, Community, and Change"

Bring some flowers from your garden for our Flower Celebration, instituted at the huge Unitarian congregation in Prague last century, in order to lift up the beauty of the diversity in our community. This is fitting prelude to the dedication of our rain garden, which embodies the new imperative tasks of any religious gathering these days. So come to this last service of this spring, for we need the beauty around us, we need each other, and we need to change ourselves to meet the changing answer to the ancient question which the Lord of that time asked of Micah: "And what is required of thee?"

Sunday, August 29, (10:45)
Water Communion

Water Communion is a ritual practiced in many Unitarian Churches. Members and friends bring water they have collected from home or travel and share the significance of their water. The service is both spiritual and sharing. As you collect water reflect on the importance of water in our lives.

Unitarian Universalist Association


Rev. Terry Ellen is our Consulting Minister. He is also the Executive Director of Unitarian Universalists for Social Justice of the Baltimore-Washington-Northern Virginia Region, where he works on social justice issues including global warming, affordable housing, health care for all, marriage equality for same-sex couples, multicultural and anti-racist initiatives, and opposition to the use of torture.
