UPCOMING SERVICES

May 12: “Learning To Be White”

Dr. Alexander Riegel

Anyone who has taken the time to read black authors who write about the black experience understands that black people undergo a process of learning what it means to be black in a predominantly white culture.  Contrariwise, most white people do not understand that they undergo a similar process of learning what it means to be white in a predominantly white culture.  Dr Riegel will discuss this experience of “learning to be white” – informative for everyone, white or not.

APRIL GIVING

Our April Share the Plate Offering Cincinnati Recycling and Reuse Hub

Cincinnati Recycling and Reuse Hub‘s mission is to revolutionize how people think about “things” and to provide a place where almost anything can be recycled or reused.

Your charitable contribution makes an instant impact! As a generous donor, you become a key partner in providing a One-Stop drop off location in the center of Cincinnati for hard-to-recycle recyclables. Since April 1st, 2021 they’ve reused or recycled over 200 tons of material, keeping that all out of our growing landfills! It’s simple and easy to do, so make a tax deductible donation today!

We are a caring Unitarian Universalist community in the centrally located Avondale neighborhood of Cincinnati. We meet in a warm and graceful building, circa 1889, for worship services that nourish spiritual growth and learning throughout life. A self-governed congregation in good standing with the Unitarian Universalist Association, we are an active force for positive change through a variety of activities that serve our members and our community. 

If you are a member here, an internet traveler or a spiritual searcher, if you are experiencing hard times and need a hand up or are a social justice advocate, come to First Church and share in the celebration of life’s journey. We cherish human diversity, the differences in sex, age, race, ethnicity, national origin, range of abilities, sexual orientation, gender identity, financial means, education, theology and political perspective. These values apply to all of the activities of our Congregation.

COME, COME, WHOEVER YOU ARE!

Our Doors Are Open!
