Second Parish in Hingham (Unitarian Universalist)

About

Second Parish in Hingham is an independent Unitarian Universalist congregation that blends traditional and innovative worship while honoring many expressions of faith. It does not emphasize denominational labels, and members are free to search for their own spiritual path, with the congregation centered on cooperation and a search for truth. Each Sunday, members recite the Second Parish Covenant, pledging love for one another, respect for each person’s search for truth and meaning, and service to neighbors and the wider world.

The congregation is intergenerational. Children start the weekly service in the sanctuary before heading upstairs to Sunday Adventures, a program for toddlers through sixth graders built around kindness, honesty, courage, compassion and love, drawing on many religious and ethical traditions. Afterward, everyone gathers for a lively coffee hour. Service projects, fundraisers and social events are part of congregational life, and services feature a rotating set of ministers and guest speakers.
