Unitarian Universalist Church
Welcome to the Unitarian Society of Germantown where we are building beloved community with compassion, service and empowerment. We are a church of about 300 members in North West Philadelphia committed to supporting each other in our faith development as well as in our times of need and working together to bring justice and peace to our communities and the world at large. USG was founded in 1865 and moved into its current building at 6511 Lincoln Drive in Mt Airy in 1928. We welcome people of all faith backgrounds, ethnicities, sexual orientations, gender identities, national origins and physical abilities. We welcome you: your whole self, with all your truths and your doubts, your worries and your hopes. Join us on this extraordinary adventure of faith. Unitarian Universalist congregations affirm and promote seven Principles, which we hold as strong values and moral guides. They are: The inherent worth and dignity of every person; Justice, equity and compassion in human relations; Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations; A free and responsible search for truth and meaning; The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large; The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all; Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.
