Rev. Parisa Parsa Today's world desperately needs the message of our Universalist heritage: the bold claim that all are saved and that we must tune ourselves to the love of God present in us, among us, and beyond us.

On October 24, 1868, a group of leaders in education, agriculture and politics officially founded a new Unitarian congregation in West Newton.

What binds us together in friendship, in kinship, in romantic love and in community? How do we honor the impulse to compassion as we experience it, and lift up the power and the mystery of its presence in our lives?
Rev. Parisa Parsa Our first Sunday in the month’s exploration of the Gift of Liberating Love will explore the ways love as a value and a guiding principle of our spiritual lives is far more than a glib, sentimental notion. THIS SERVICE WILL BE ON ZOOM ONLY due to the storm. Find us at this […]
