Imagine a religion that loves the questions and comes together to support each other in exploring many possible answers.UU ESTRIE is an active and engaging spiritual community established by Universalists in Québec's Eastern Townships in 1870 as a haven for religious freedom. Open to seekers of all faith traditions we gather together to support each other in designing a life of meaning, justice and connection. Among us are people with Jewish, Roman Catholic, and Protestant roots, as well as pagans, Buddhists, and those who might call themselves humanists or spiritual naturalists. What we hold in common is a radical belief that, in the words ascribed to a 16th century Unitarian founder, Francis David: "We need not think alike to love alike." To become involved in this open and welcoming spiritual community of seekers, come visit us! Services are Sunday mornings at 10:30 a.m., followed by a lively Social Hour. Meet new friends and get involved in some of the community and interfaith outreach activities. Families are welcome! Bring your children for the opening chalice lighting, songs, joys and sorrows candles and story for all ages during the first third of our service. Children are then sung out to a program designed to encourage their own unique religious exploration and spiritual growth. One of the most radical things we can do is introduce good people to each other. If you are interested in how this community might fit into your life, if you have needs for spiritual support, or just wish to chat about "soul-matters", we invite you to contact our board of directors via email at [email protected]. We look forward to meeting you!
