Welcome Visitors
We are glad you are here!
As Unitarian Universalists, we covenant to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of all persons. As we engage in an ongoing search for truth and meaning.
Whoever you are, whomever you love, however you inhabit your body, and wherever you are on life’s journey, you are welcome into the life of this church.
We covenant to create a caring, affirming, and inclusive community that invites us to become our best selves, and to serve the wider community and the world.
We Welcome Visitors
Visitors and Newcomers are always welcome at All Souls. Our building is accessible and we have two single-stall, gender neutral restrooms, one of which is ADA compliant, with a baby changing station. We have assistive listening devices for use during service.
Many of our newcomers have visited several congregations looking for a community, fellowship, and a place to explore their spirituality. We are proud to be a welcoming congregation. We’re glad you’re thinking of visiting us!
Dress at our services is informal. People often feel comfortable in business casual or more casual attire, including jeans or shorts. The goal is to be comfortable.
Location
We are located at 196 Elm Street (corner of Elm and Church Streets) in Braintree, Massachusetts. Parking is available on Charles Street and in the church parking lot off Charles Street. Minutes from Route 3, I-93 and I-95.
