First Parish Church in Waltham

Welcome to First Parish Church, a congregation of open minds and hearts in Waltham, Massachusetts.  People gather here with hearts open to the possibilities of love and minds open to the insights of truth.  We welcome all who are searching and questioning, those who are seeking to stretch and grow, spiritually and emotionally, those who hunger to live lives of justice and compassion, and those who are hurting and looking for a place to heal.  

We welcome you and invite you to join our intentional community of care and nurture.  As Unitarian Universalists we celebrate a life-affirming faith that lifts us to a greater awareness of who we are and what we can become.  Come join us!
