About us
Do you think of yourself as 'spiritual but not religious'? This group could be for you!
This is a social group for inspiration and discussion in the Unitarian spirit of tolerance, sharing and hope for the contemporary world. We list events happening in some of the nine Unitarian spiritual communities in Greater London.
Unitarianism is spirituality without dogma. Unitarians value the principles of diversity and equality rather than subscribing to any one particular religion or creed. Unitarianism is an open-minded and individual approach to religion so there is scope for a very wide range of beliefs and doubts.

Book Club Part 3 - Changing Hearts and Minds
Rosslyn Hill Chapel, 3 Pilgrim's Place, Hampstead, London, GBHonouring the earth Part 3 of the book club 'Cherishing the Earth' led
by Alison Bybee and David Carter. 'Changing Hearts and Minds'Join us for insightful discussions over tea and cake, as we explore a book that celebrates and reflects on our planet, searching for a spiritual response to the ecological crisis that confronts us all. We will meet on the 3rd Sunday of every month for four months.
The book, Cherishing the Earth – Nourishing the Spirit, edited by Maria Curtis, presents a range of Unitarian responses to the global environmental crisis. Contributors include ministers, lay people, and children, writing from diverse theological and ethical perspectives, exploring what it might mean to live in right relationship with the Earth. Their insights range from the prophetic and political to the practical and intensely personal, but all share a sense of gratitude for the sacred gift of life.
Maria Curtis asks what changes we need to make in ourselves and in our society if we are to work towards healing the Earth and restoring balance to the global ecosystem: “We need to re-imagine what a healthy relationship between humanity and the natural world might look like, one conducive to the flourishing of all beings onEarth.” Rev. Dr Maria Curtis is a Unitarian minister with a background in education and psychology.

18th January: Prophetic Voices
