Our Vision

We welcome fellow seekers to consider life's big questions and share our loving community.

We are a spiritually inspired urban community of caring people. We derive strength from our diversity, work for human dignity everywhere, and provide a strong voice for social justice in the greater Norwich area. None of us has final answers to the central questions of life, but we are committed to the process of seeking truth and meaning.

We inquire and worship together, learn through respectful religious dialog, and draw upon the spiritual wisdom of every tradition, from every corner of the globe.

Sunday Service

Our 2019 - 2020 worship season began on September 9 at 9:30 AM. We meet in the Upper Bushnell Room of the Central Baptist Church, 2 Union Street (entrance on Church Street). Visitors and newcomers are welcome!

Our services draw from seven Principles, which Unitarian Universalist congregations affirm and promote. We live out the Principles within a "living tradition" of wisdom and spirituality, drawn from multiple sources such as science, poetry, scripture and personal experience. We encourage you to bring your own ideas and inspiration to our congregation, where you'll find others who will listen and perhaps even share your enthusiasm!

Church Location

One of our primary goals is to make our church as accessible to as many people as possible. This is the reason why we conduct services in the Upper Bushnell Room of Central Baptist Church at 2 Union Street (entrance on Church Street). We are just across the street from the Norwich Town Hall.

Parking Area

Parking spaces are available on both the lower and upper floor of the parking structure right across the street from Norwich City Hall. There is also street parking on Union Street, on Church Street, and on Broadway right outside Norwich City Hall. For the mobility-challenged, access to our worship space is easiest from the Church Street side, where there is limited handicapped parking on the street near the entrance on Sundays. The small parking area near the Church Street entrance is reserved for Central Baptist Church's minister and our visiting speakers - please leave those spaces available for them.

Get Directions

Dress Code

We are not overly formal–most people wear what's comfortable for them and what works for the current weather condition. If you are used to "dressing up" for church and are comfortable with that, by all means, dress up! Most people attend our church in “business casual” clothing.
