You Belong Here: Our Doors and Hearts Are Open
At Unity on the North Shore, "everyone is welcome" isn't just a polite phrase on a sign, it is the heartbeat of our community. We believe that every person is a sacred reflection of the divine, and we strive to be a place where you can bring your whole self without fear of judgment. We don't just "accept" diversity; we celebrate it as a gift that makes our congregation stronger and more beautiful.
Love is Love: We proudly perform weddings and spiritual unions for LGBTQ+ couples. We celebrate your milestones and your families with the same joy and sanctity as any other.
Gender Identity: Whether you are trans, non-binary, or gender-expansive, you have a home here. We honor your journey and your identity.
Mental Health & Wellness: We know that life can be heavy. If you are navigating mental health challenges, please know this is a safe space to find support, rest, and understanding. You don’t have to "have it all together" to sit in our pews.
A Place for Every Path: Whether you are a lifelong believer, a skeptic with big questions, or someone just looking for a little peace, there is a seat at the table for you.

Parking
We have a dedicated parking lot to the west of our building on Central Street. There is also plenty of street parking.
Accessibility
Unfortunately our building is not wheelchair-friendly. Immediately upon entering the building you must go down a flight of stairs to reach our worship area. We are working on relocating and accessibility is at the top of our must-have list. For those who are physically unable to visit our space, we invite you to join us live on Zoom at https://us06web.zoom.us/j/8478648977
What to Expect
Our service is an hour long. It includes:
Children and Teens
We don't offer any dedicated programming for children or teens, but they are welcome to attend our Sunday services. We have a small playroom adjacent to the worship space where young children can stay within arm's reach as parents enjoy the service.
What should I wear?
Wear whatever you like! We're a pretty casual crowd.
Join us for our Sunday Services, offered weekly both on Zoom and in person. While we encourage attendance in person to fully immerse yourself in the experience and connect with our community, Zoom provides a preview of what to expect during our service. We look forward to welcoming you, whether virtually or in person!
