ABOUT OUR CHURCH

We welcome all who seek a better life through spiritual and intellectual exploration.  We have respect for all faiths, coupled with a modern religious outlook that encourages freedom of individual thought and conscience. We welcome all who believe that religion is wider than any one sect and deeper than any one set of opinions.

SERVICES

Our Sunday services at 11am draw their inspiration from

scriptures of the world faiths and wisdom traditions, philosophy and from contemporary literature and science.

 Service leaders include our minister Jennifer, members of the congregation, visiting ministers, and members of other Unitarian churches. They  include music,  singing, prayer and meditation.

There is always time for a chat after with a cuppa .

EVENTS

As well as a sacred space for spiritual nourishment the church hosts a wealth of creative activities for community groups including choirs and dancing.

​

The space lends itself to live concerts, plays, book signings, workshops, craft fairs and dance performances and we host our own

Friday lunchtime fund-raising concerts (see: https://www.brightonunitarian.org.uk/friday-lunchtime-concerts)

Belonging

The hunger to belong is not merely a desire to be attached to something. It is rather sensing that

great transformation and discovery become possible when belonging

is sheltered and true – John  O'Donohue
