What we’re about
Emerson Unitarian Universalist Church (www.emersonhouston.org) offers topics and discussions on big questions which are meant to encourage life-long spiritual growth. These gatherings are open, providing spiritual nourishment to the community. The goal is not to provide the answers, but to assist and encourage each of us in the search for our own truth.
We have programs on Sunday morning and beyond, ranging from current events to sacred texts to ethical eating. We invite people of all races, ethnicity, ages, gender identities, and sexual orientations to join the conversation.
