Parish Minister, All Souls UU Church, Greenfield, MA
|
|
All Souls is a non-creedal church in which members are encouraged to develop their own philosophies of life in the light of conscience, a liberal religious tradition and experience. Unitarian Universalists treasure the universal truths taught by great teachers of humanity in every age and tradition. Many meaningful events occur here, some private, some communal, some of the heart and spirit, others of intellect and social conscience. Joys are celebrated, sorrows are shared, concerns about injustice are raised and then converted to action. Our community, and the community at large, is strengthened.

*We have an impressive religious education program that teaches our children respect of all faiths and nourishes their own spiritual paths

No matter what one's faith, the purpose of religion must be to empower each person to live their faith values in ways that heal the world. By this process, the meaning of life is found.
