The Unitarian Church of Edmonton —
a liberal religious, multi-generational congregation:
We celebrate a rich mosaic of free-thinking,
spiritually-questing individuals joined in common support
and action. We welcome diversity, pursue the common good,
and work for justice. We believe in the compassion of the
individual heart, the warmth of community, and the search
for meaning in our lives.
