Who are the Unitarians?

who are the unitarians?

Welcome to the website of the Unitarian Congregations of Greater Toronto...

Unitarians celebrate the unity and interdependence of web of all existence. We each explore our place in the universe in different ways - true to our own conscience and experience. We pursue our individual search for truth and meaning in community with like-minded individuals.

Unitarians value both spiritual insight and rational enquiry. Some draw extensively from formal religious traditions; others regard themselves as Humanists. Some have words like “God” and “Goddess” in their vocabulary; others do not. All of us see our personal theology or philosophy as subjective – within the context of the interconnected whole.

Our sense of connection is demonstrated by our respect for the inherent worth and dignity of every person. We are called to act with compassion, generosity and integrity in all human relations. You will find Unitarians at the forefront of social action – driven by our commitment to a fair, diverse and sustainable global community.

Our long-standing tradition evolves to remain relevant and vital… ever moving ever still

As Unitarians, we covenant to affirm and promote…

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 within 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.
