I look around wherever I go to see if I spy any signs of rebirth. Some signs are subtle and need to be looked for with scrutiny, but they are there. And in Florida the signs seem even more subtle, but I have noticed the Yellow Jacaranda tree sending out its first tentative blossoms and the Hawthorne’s white blossoms hidden amongst the evergreen leaves.

Welcome Guests & Friends

Welcome Guests & Friends

Love is the doctrine of our congregation, the quest for truth is our tradition, and service is our prayer. We welcome you.
Our Fellowship serves as a beacon to encourage and support all in their search for personal meaning. We will not tell you what to believe; we will encourage your questions, thoughtful dialogue, and self-improvement.
We include people of all ages, physical abilities, financial circumstances, sexual orientations, national origins, races, educational backgrounds and spiritual understandings.
We work for justice through love and compassion by sponsoring an interfaith advocacy group, Standing on The Side of Love. We seek to harness the power of logic and love to end oppression. Join us in our efforts. We come together for Sunday services as one congregation. Come, see how Christians, Buddhists, Jews, Humanists, Muslims, Scientists, Mystics, Pagans, Atheists and others find common ground in our Unitarian Universalist Community.
