Welcome

Welcome to the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the Palisades. Whoever you are, whatever your beliefs or cultural background, you are welcome here. Unitarian Universalists believe in a free and responsible search for meaning. We seek to learn from the wisdom within all of the world’s religions, as well as from the loving source that lives within each of us. For some, that loving source is humanity. Others place faith in a higher power. As a Welcoming Congregation, lesbian, gay, straight, bisexual, and transgendered people are all encouraged to full participation. We are an anti-racist congregation, working towards justice, through service and love.

Mission

The mission of UUCP is to:

Nurture Meaningful Connections,

Work for Racial and Social Justice,

and Enhance Spiritual Growth.

UUCP Racial & Social Justice Team

The UUCP Racial and Social Justice Team grew out of the UUCP participation in the UUA Antiracist Multicultural Congregations Pilot Project of the 1990s. The Team, under the umbrella of the Standing on the Side of Love campaign is dedicated to encouraging and supporting congregational activities which include anti-racism and anti-oppression work, social service work, and the work of celebrating diversity in spirituality, race, ethnicity and sexual orientation. The Team also initiates, organizes and implements projects and programs in these areas and seeks liaison and common ground with other groups and organizations in the community.
