Unitarian Universalist Church Of St Petersburg

More Info

General Info

We are a congregation of almost 200 members. Our goal might be described as the happiness, helpfulness, and fulfillment for ourselves and earthkind, by means of our continued growth understanding, caring, and community. The activities of our church help us toward this goal. We encourage and support one another on our individual spiritual journeys. We seek wisdom about life and about how to live from every source we know, including: (1) our companions and communities, (2) all the world’s religions, (3) the sciences, arts, and humanities, and (4) reflection on our own direct personal experiences. As a congregation in the Unitarian Universalist tradition, we do not have a creed or required set of beliefs. Instead we agree to act with reverence toward all things as best we understand, to enhance the well-being of one another and our widening circles of community. We welcome as members and seek community with all people equally, regardless of beliefs, gender, race, nationality, orientation, or background. We become companions for our journeys in our Sunday service gatherings and in gathering for study, discussion, life sharing, social activities, and social justice. Our congregation is a member of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), which includes about 1000 congregations in the United States. The UUA is a merger of the Unitarian and Universalist denominations into one denomination. By 1961 the two had grown alike in their understanding of religious purpose and practice and found it good to merge. The UU Church of St. Petersburg was founded in 1915 by a Universalist family and a Unitarian family. We built our sanctuary and social hall on Mirror Lake in 1929. We added a building for office space and religious education in 1967.

I have attended this church for almost 4 years and I wonder why I did not grow up here. I love this church and what it represents. I feel at peace and at home when I am amongst these wonderful individuals. I know we cant be in the building but even the online presence has been wonderful. They have even drove by my home to say hello with a wave. It brings joy to my heart that people like these beautiful people here exist in a world like this. Thank you for being who you all are.
