What do we believe? We are a non-doctrinal faith, which means we have no shared creed. Instead, we have a shared covenant, which is expressed in our seven Principles.

In Unitarian Universalism, you can bring your whole self: your full identity, your questioning mind, your expansive heart.

The beliefs of Unitarian Universalists are diverse and inclusive. We do not have to check our personal background and beliefs at the door: we join together on a journey that honors everywhere we’ve been before. We think for ourselves, and reflect together, about important questions:

  • The existence of a Higher Power
  • Life and Death
  • Sacred Texts
  • Prayer and Spiritual Practices

We are united in our broad and inclusive outlook, and in our values, as expressed in our seven Principles. We are united in shared experience: our open and stirring worship services, religious education, and rites of passage; our work for social justice; our quest to include the marginalized; our expressions of love.
