Our Values

Rev. Elizabeth Bukey and Rev. Elizabeth Assenza stand with Black Lives Matter sign in front of church

We covenant to affirm and promote the seven principles of Unitarian Universalism and understand that our faith draws on the six sources of Unitarian Universalism.

These principles lead us to value:

  • The inherent worth and dignity of immigrants, Muslims, people of color, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and/or queer people.
  • The right of every citizen to vote and of all people to access health care and reproductive rights.
  • Initiatives to address the threat of climate change and to protect the interdependent web of all existence.

We are a member of the JP/West Roxbury Sanctuary Coalition.

We proclaim that Black Lives Matter.

We side with the most vulnerable among us, and oppose any and all unjust government actions to deport, register, discriminate, or despoil.
