Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Board of Trustees of the Unitarian Church of Staten Island has canceled in-person Sunday Services for the foreseeable future. Our Sunday Services can be joined virtually from our Facebook page at 11:00 am. See our Events Page for other virtual connections to our Minister and our community.
Welcome to the Unitarian Church of Staten Island, where we treasure the wisdom of the great religious and ethical traditions of the world. We find nourishment in religious exploration and fellowship, and invite you to join us. The spirit of Unitarian Universalism is not new—since the first century, people have aspired to freedom of thought in the face of dominant religious beliefs. We count those free thinkers and heretics as our ancestors. We are the only Unitarian Universalist congregation intentionally founded by Transcendentalist Abolitionists. In that tradition we invite members to engage the world through spiritual growth and personal transformation. Speak with any member during coffee hour after the Sunday service, contact the office or our minister, Emily DeTar Birt, via email or phone. Rev. Emily DeTar Birt reminds us, "There is a love so much greater than us that connects all of us to each other. As we are being asked to stay healthy at home, keep reaching out. We are powerfully full of connection, held in the grace of our interconnected lives, and held by all the threads of relationship that keep us thriving." Our Online Sunday Service is at 10:50 a.m. and ends at noon. Join us for fellowship and lively conversation in our virtual coffee hour immediately following the service. The Unitarian Church of Staten Island is a Member of the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations |
