At UU Schenectady, our Mission is: Connecting in spiritual community, we
celebrate life with joy, grow in compassion, and create justice.  And we want to share that compassion, justice, and joy with the wider community as we celebrate our 125th anniversary!!!

Our Unitarian Universalist religious values of justice, equity, transformation, generosity, pluralism, and interdependence, all with Love at the center guide how we live our lives. If you affirm those values too, we hope you will join us for this MayFest CommUUnity Celebration!
