Our Vision
Emerson Unitarian Universalist Chapel provides an open, nurturing environment for our children and youth to study the wisdom and experiences of other spiritual seekers so that may become spiritually fulfilled, conscientious, compassionate members of our local and global communities.
Our Mission
The Religious Education Committee encourages our children and youth to explore our Unitarian Universalist identity, Jewish and Christian traditions, world religious and social and environmental issues through discussion, worship, meaningful ritual and community involvement.
