We are a different kind of religious community. We are non-creedal, non-dogmatic, and progressive. Many of us are Christian, but we don't stop at that. We welcome insights of all religions.

We don't claim to have all the answers. We think it's okay to question, seek and reflect on what is true and good. We don't put God in a box. The Spirit of Life is too great for that.

We think that God is still speaking, and that revelation doesn't stop with the Bible but continues in our reason, our hearts, and our consciences. We believe that every soul should have the freedom to make his own personal theology and not conform to a theology that someone else has set into words, no matter how orthodox it is. Life is a spiritual journey, and we must support each other in that journey. The following Unitarian Universalist saying says it all:

"Love is the doctrine of this community, the quest of truth is its sacrament and service is its prayer. To dwell together in peace. To seek knowledge in freedom. To serve humankind in fellowship to the end that all souls shall grow in harmony with the divine. This do we covenant with each other and with God."

We are a welcoming congregation for Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, and Transgenders who feel alienated by traditional Christian/religious groups and are seeking a more accepting religious tradition.

We are striving to be a progressive religious voice here in the Philippines.

We have a Quezon City UU Group that meets every first Sunday night of the Month.

We also have a simple worship service in the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Bicutan, Taguig, every Sunday at 3 p.m. Contact Bob for details. 0917 532 4785.
