HUUC Buildings are Closed

The deep cleaning of our sanctuary and fellowship buildings is complete. Both buildings will remain closed until the stay at home orders have been lifted by the state. At that time please check back here for a determination on when we will reopen.

Thank you for your understanding as we try to keep our community as safe as possible.

Saturday Night at the Movies: For Families (meant broadly!)

Please join us to watch Hayao Miyazaki’s movie, Totoro, Saturday, 6/20, at 7:30 p.m., by zoom. This movie-suggestion, by several of our Rocks, is rated G, lasts 90 minutes, and is a Japanese anime fantasy film.

The movie tells the story of a professor's two young daughters (Satsuki and Mei) and their interactions and antics with Totoro, a spirit, and other woodland spirits. It is a story of wonder and new experiences, hard times and good times, and courage in light of change.

The film is based deeply in the Shinto religion, the native religion of Japan. Shintoism believes that there are an infinite number of divine spirits, both good and evil, who live in all things. Totoro introduces us to those spirits and rituals and beliefs.

*This movie is rated G. Everyone is welcome!

Who we are

We are a liberal religious community of people of all ages who hold diverse theological beliefs. We come not only from Harvard, but also from many surrounding towns. We gather together "in the spirit of love," to worship, to learn, and to care for one another. We come together both to be comforted and accepted for who we are, and to be challenged to transform and grow as moral and spiritual persons.

We believe in the value of personal experience and reason, and use both as we explore the wisdom of the world's religious traditions, seeking to find and make meaning for ourselves. We celebrate and honor the prophetic words and deeds of many of those who've come before us, which call us to serve not only one another, but also those outside of our community. We long for a world that is fair and just and filled with compassion, and we work to make it so.

We welcome you! We'd love to have you join us on our journey!
