Liberal Religion in New Bedford
We are guided by our mission – to encourage diversity and mutual acceptance, and to work for positive change in ourselves and in our community. In our relationships with one another we seek to realize the ideals of our covenant:
We value our diversity and pledge to care for one another
in the spirit of compassion, to speak and listen to each other
with respect, and to promote justice and kindness in the
world.
We welcome you into our family.


Welcome to the religious education program for children and youth at the First Unitarian Church in New Bedford! Our congregation began providing value based religious education over a century and a half ago, and today we continue our tradition of excellence in non-credal (liberal) religious education for all ages.
