About First UU: Our Mission

The Unitarian Universalist Church of Underwood is a welcoming community of diverse people, who gather for reflection, refuge, spiritual renewal and intellectual growth to improve our understanding of our world while striving to build bridges toward peace and understanding, and it improve lives and opportunities across our communities.

The Unitarian Universalist Church is affiliated with the Unitarian Universalist Association of North America and is an ethical and liberal religious community dedicated to promoting the ongoing search for truth and to affirming the inherent worth of the individual.

We understand reality through human experience, enlightened reason, scientific method, and the democratic process, and we find the central source of power and goodness within the human heart, mind, and spirit. Individually and collectively, we assume responsibility for our future, our community, our children, and our interdependent world.

Our growth and actions as thoughful, compassionate, and ethical human beings advance our humanist vision of a world of peace and love, dignity and equality, freedom and justice.
