Shawnee Mission Unitarian Universalist Church

For some, God is understood as the source of love or hopefulness, or as the creative force in our universe. Others find that the notion of a god has little meaning for them. We seek to act as a moral force in the world and believe that ethical living is the supreme witness of religion. The here-and-now and the effects our actions will have on future generations deeply concern us.
