Built approximately 100 years ago by
Henry Huttleston Rogers,
this granite monument replaced the existing wooden
church, located just down the street.
Stone masons, Wood Carvers and Stained
Glass artists all exhibited the height of their talents in this turn of the
century Gothic cathedral.
More than simply a monument, the
Unitarian Church is a congregation of diverse people
from the Southeastern
Massachusetts area.
There is a active church school, which is housed in a tudor
mansion on
the grounds of the church.
There is an active choir, and song is an
important part of the church.
I have been a member now for almost 20
years.
The congregation has changed quite a bit, with people coming and going.
The spiritual environment that first drew me to the church is still intact, and
a welcome break each Sunday morning for me.
We
join in a common quest
For
the discovery of life's deeper meaning,
For
the enduring strength of hope.
For
the inspiration of joy and laughter,
For
the mind's illumination by the torch of wisdom,
For
hearts warmed by the mysteries of love,
For
souls enriched by the window of the living spirit.
