Our beliefs are diverse and inclusive. We have no shared creed. Every Sunday at First Unitarian Church of Toledo we recite the following Covenant:

  • Love is the doctrine of this church,
  • The quest for truth is its sacrament,
  • And service is its prayer.
  • This is our great covenant:
  • To dwell together in peace,
  • To seek the truth in love,
  • And to help one another.

Though Unitarianism and Universalism were both liberal Christian traditions, this responsible search has led us to an inclusive spirituality drawn from six sources: from scriptural wisdom to personal experience to modern day heroes.

In Unitarian Universalism, you can bring your whole self: your full identity, your questioning mind, your expansive heart.

Together, we create a force more powerful than one person or one belief system. As Unitarian Universalists, we do not have to check our personal background and beliefs at the door: we join together on a journey that honors everywhere we’ve been before.

Unitarian Universalists believe more than one thing. We think for ourselves, and reflect together, about important questions:

We are united in our broad and inclusive outlook, and in our values, as expressed in our seven Principles. We are united in shared experience: our open and stirring worship services, religious education, and rites of passage; our work for social justice; our quest to include the marginalized; our expressions of love.
