UU Wellesley Hills, formally and historically known as the Unitarian Universalist Society of Wellesley Hills (UUSWH), is a dynamic and historic congregation that gathers diverse spiritual seekers from Wellesley and neighboring towns. Our shared mission is to build a community of faith that inspires spiritual growth, just and responsible action, and lives of compassion, purpose, and hope.
We attract believers, seekers, and doubters alike. While we cherish our free church tradition, we remain progressive and forward-thinking. We are Welcoming Congregation that celebrates the presence of LGBTQ folks, a Green Sanctuary that works toward environmental sustainability, and a member of the UU Partner Church Council with an awareness of the importance of global community.
Like other UU congregations, UU Wellesley Hills is self-governing through a clear democratic process. While we are sometimes referred to as a “church,” UU Wellesley Hills is actually part of a liberal religious movement that draws people from many different backgrounds. It can feel like an especially hospitable place to multi-faith families and individuals.
There’s much to admire in the character and commitment of our friends and members — not only the work we have done together, but the strength of the bonds among us and the sure support we extend to one another. We are always eager to embrace new people in our inspiring community of faith.
