UU Middleboro
A Church that Puts Love at the Very Center of Our Life Together
Welcome
If you are looking for a spiritual home, come in and experience our open minds, open hearts, and open doors. For over 125 years, the First Unitarian Universalist Society has been serving individuals and families in Middleboro and surrounding towns with great music, meaningful and thought-provoking sermons, and opportunities to give back. We are committed to spiritual growth and lifelong learning with religious exploration that promotes creativity, integrity, and compassion. We work together to build a world that is more loving and more just for all people.
Our mission
To create and sustain a welcoming and caring community that embodies our UU principles, inspires spiritual growth without dogma or creed, and promotes and serves racial and social justice.
What’s Love Got to Do with It?

John has been a part of UU life for 7 years having served on committees, been a choir member and worked on events such as the Spring Gala and the October Road Rally. He’s been known to write poetry and lives in Halifax with his wife and best friend, Jayne.

This month’s Full Moon, called the Strawberry Moon, falls in the sign of Capricorn. Known as the “seagoat,” he is a mythical creature with the body of a goat and the tail of a fish.
Capricorn is also one of four Cardinal signs and considered the Zodiac’s natural initiators and trailblazers. Each heralds the beginning of a new season. In this case, we have passed Summer Solstice and are now moving into a time of lessening sunlight as the Wheel turns us toward Fall.
