Welcome to the Unitarian Universalist Association!

On this page you can find information about our faith tradition, our history and our religious practice. You'll also find quick links to Unitarian Universalist congregations in the greater Houston area. We hope that you will take the time to visit one of our congregations and that you'll find an affirming religious home within our faith community!

The Houston/Galveston area has many Unitarian Universalist congregations , each with a unique character and style of worship. We hope that you will visit the web sites of these congregations, and then visit the congregations and the folks who make up their worshipping communities to find out more. They are ready to welcome you!

Please visit these Unitarian Universalist congregations in the greater Houston area:

Northwoods UU Church, The Woodlands Northwest Community UU Church , Houston UU Fellowship of Houston , Houston Emerson Unitarian Church , Houston First UU Church , Houston Henry David Thoreau UU Congregation , Stafford Bay Area UU Church , Houston UU Fellowship of Galveston County , Galveston

All of the congregations in this area are part of a UUA District called the Southwest Unitarian Universalist Conference , where you can find helpful information about programs, services, and other congregations in Texas. Visit the Southwest Conference for more information on congregations in this part of the United States.

There are many ways to learn more about our faith tradition and its historic roots. Unitarianism began centuries ago in Transylvania and western Europe, and Universalism became popular in America in the eighteenth century. To find out more about our religious practices, we invite you to read some of our pamphlets, and see in particular our introductory pamphlets.

To find out more about what's on the UUA web site, you might want to take our web tour. If you are interested, please consider joining one of over 250 online communities. The email list called "newcomers" is especially for newcomers to Unitarian Universalism.

Our list of Frequently Asked Questions may be helpful. And our Public Information Assistant, Erika Nonken, is always ready to address your questions. The Newcomers Bulletin Board also has questions and answers covering a wide range of interests from newcomers to UUism.

Once again, welcome to the Unitarian Universalist Association!
