Not for Ourselves Alone: Building an Inclusive Future
- Expand Welcoming Hospitality
- Enhance Worship Experience
- Ensure Inclusive Programs
- Encourage Future Ministries
Repairing, improving and making our home more accessible will deepen our presence in the city as a place of action as well as worship.
For more than 150 years First Universalist Church has raised high the banner of inclusion and hope. Now is the time for us to step boldly forward to invest in the future, firmly planting our roots in the city and spreading branches of love and healing to our greater community.
This Capital Campaign is the culmination of a five-year strategic plan and hundreds of hours of creative visioning by our Pre-Design Team. The investment of significant capital will repair, improve and make more accessible our Dupont Avenue home, and deepen the church’s presence in the city as a place of action as well as worship.
Amid the divisive messages in our country, our Universalist message of justice, peace, and compassion is needed now more than ever. By investing together, we can strengthen the church’s Racial Justice and Faithful Action programs, create new and better ways to serve our children, youth, and adult members, and expand the ways our building can be used by outside groups who share our values.
