About our gathered religious community

The Northshore Unitarian Universalist Church is a liberal religious congregation on Boston's North Shore.

We are located at 323 Locust St., Danvers, MA 01923. If you would like to visit, you will find a map and can get directions by clicking here. Our services are held Sundays from 10:30 a.m. until about 11:30, followed by a coffee hour, from September through June. This year, for the first time, we have a full schedule of lay-led summer services as well.

We are a Welcoming Congregation, a program within the Unitarian Universalist Association that recognizes churches for reaching out to people who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender.

Please visit our Calendar of Events for detailed information about our services and other activities taking place within the church.

We have a vibrant Religious Education Program for children from nursery school through high school.

We hope to hear from you!

You are warmly welcome here:

whatever your race,
whatever your origins,
whatever your challenge,
whatever your religious background, or absence of one,
whatever your lifestyle or sexual orientation.

We hold women and men in equal dignity,
we value young and old,
and we believe that community can be achieved without conformity of thought.

Our religious community is based on individual freedom, tolerance, and a mutual search for truth.


Our Vision Statement

At our annual meeting on May 11, 2008, we adopted the following Vision Statement:

A look at our congregation five years into the future ...

We of the Northshore Unitarian Universalist Church are a warm and
inclusive congregation. All may find a home here in which to grow spiritually and deepen their faith. The diversity of our membership, and the music and art enveloping us, stimulate this growth.

We see the future in our young people and value a thriving religious education program. We foster an open-minded quest for truth and meaning at all ages that will nurture personal fulfillment in our challenging world. We resolve to promote social justice both locally and globally, and to serve others in need.

With gratitude for our beautiful surroundings and reverence for all life, we aspire to be environmental stewards in our own church and in the larger community. For even as we celebrate the worth and dignity of each individual, we acknowledge the interdependent web of existence on this planet.

We welcome you to share your spiritual journey.
