WVUU
Are you seeking a spiritual home where
the search for meaning and truth is valued?
Welcome to the West Valley Unitarian Universalist Church
of Glendale, Arizona.
Services are held on Sundays at 10:30am. Children's Religious Education classes start at 9:30am during the school year. There are no children's classes during the summer, but children are always welcome in our services. Come Visit Us!
Love is the doctrine of our church;
The quest for truth is our holy rite;
And service is our prayer.
To dwell together in peace;
To seek knowledge in freedom;
To serve humankind in friendship;
Thus do we covenant.
The West Valley UU church is one of more than 1,000 self-governing congregations belonging to the Unitarian Universalist Association.
Freedom of belief is the characteristic theme of contemporary Unitarian Universalism. We are a non-creedal church. There is no doctrinal test for membership. We have chosen a heritage that places the final authority for religious questions, not with a book, the Bible, nor with an institution, the church, but with reason and individual experience.
A Unitarian Universalist led by his or her reason and conscience to a belief in the unique missions of Jesus may sit beside another member, similarly led, who does not believe in the existence of a personal God.
The West Valley UU church is a community that respects each individual's path
toward spiritual growth. Our church's mission, simply stated, is:
- To build a caring community supportive of personal dignity and open communication.
- To be a vital force in the wider community by sharing our vision for social justice and intellectual freedom and by service to those in need.
- To encourage each other in our search for truth and meaning.
- To provide a safe, nurturing environment where children, as well as adults, can follow their own religious path.
- To grow in understanding of our universal connection.
