Join us at First Parish in Brookline, a caring community and sanctuary for diversity. A Welcoming Congregation in the Unitarian Universalist Association, we seek to make a place for all ages to experience and celebrate community, to teach and learn from each other in an environment guided by respect and love, and to actively work for social justice.
Worship is deeply theological, musically inspired and intellectually challenging. We are united not by creed but by a belief that the human spirit needs tending and the struggle to live a moral and ethical life is transformative and essential. You’ll feel welcome here.

Our Mission Statement:
The people of First Parish affirm our religious, spiritual, and cultural diversity. We seek to make a place for all to experience and celebrate community, to learn our ancient traditions, to educate one another, to share our spiritual search. We acknowledge our limitations and strive to make our caring real and effective among ourselves and in service to others.
