We meet every Sunday at 11.00am.
Our services of worship can be viewed as a celebration of our deepest values. We see our religious beliefs as relevant to all aspects of life including the wider community.
A visitor to our services may find the format of our services quite familiar – hymns, music, prayers/meditation, sermons and readings. However the content is anything but traditional. We enjoy a wide variety of perspectives from members of our congregation and a programme of visiting speakers who range from Humanists to Buddhists, Presbyterians to Pagans.
We believe that everyone has a right to seek truth and meaning for themselves. As Unitarians, we are not required to assent to any creed or statement of faith.
Our emphasis is on being true to oneself. We celebrate the dignity of differences between religions as a precious asset of humanity.
There is a strong emphasis on individuality. This enables us to hold our own beliefs and values without fear of being met with prejudice or intolerance. Each of us is free to seek and follow our own understanding and meaning to life within a caring community of like-minded people.
Children are always welcome at our services. They can sit with their parents for the first part of the service and then go through to our coffee room with leaders to follow their own activities.
We meet for coffee and a chat at the end of our Sunday service. This gives us the additional opportunity to make visitors welcome and to get to know them better. We also have a chance to discuss the service with the speaker and with one another. Many of us feel that this enables us all to be fully involved with our worship and to celebrate our fellowship.
