In the tradition of Unitarian Universalism, which celebrates the divine spark in each of us, we strive to create a welcoming and diverse congregation that nurtures our spirituality, inspires our religious education, and encourages commitment and service to the community.

Welcome to our Church!

Since 1867, the First Unitarian Church has maintained a presence for liberal religion in Greater Cleveland. We gather within a centuries-old tradition, dating back to the Reformation, that affirms the value of human experience, our need for ever-deepening compassion and understanding, the search for what is true and right, and the interdependence of Life.

We have no dogma or creed, recognizing instead that the Source of Life (by whatever name we may know it) shines through each individual soul in ways that are both common and unique. As a welcoming congregation, we invite all who share these values to be a part of our liberal religious community.

-Reverend Daniel E. Budd, Parish Minister
