Who We Are
Countryside Church Unitarian Universalist is a religious community that confirms, challenges and supports a diverse membership that spans all age groups, faith traditions, and an array of ethnic, political and economic experiences. We think that diversity enriches us all as we talk about a reality that none of us can possibly know completely.
What We Do
Our purpose is as complex as it is simple: We unite to strengthen the bonds of kinship among all persons, to promote human dignity and increase reverence for life’s creating, sustaining and transforming power through worship, study and service. –The Countryside Church Covenant
What We Believe
Our church is unique in that we do not have one set of beliefs that everyone must share in order to join. Rather, we believe in pluralistic religious ideas and the freedom of their expression. We believe that individual reason and conscience are the arbiters of religious truth. And we believe that seeking that truth is a never-ending journey.

Our Prairie
Nature is a spiritual wonder. The interconnected web of life is in full expression in prairies.
Countryside maintains a small prairie to remind us we’re part of the reciprocal circle of life. We recognize our future is intertwined with the flourishing of the natural world. Our members are deeply involved in community restoration groups as stewards and volunteers. Having a connection with nature brings everyone so much joy. Our small prairie, with its growing number of plant species, is a symbol that our faith community is committed to a glorious mutual flourishing of all living things.
