About the District

The Massachusetts Bay District is the organization of 55 Unitarian Universalist congregations in the Greater Boston area. The purposes of the Massachusetts Bay District are to:

  • assess the needs of and provide resources for congregational leaders to help them become agents of transformation in their congregations
  • bring an outside perspective for congregations to learn from broader religious, cultural, and academic contexts
  • advocate for the growth and spiritual vitality of Unitarian Universalism in the district
  • activate the capacity and potential of our congregations to become communities where individuals may grow spiritually throughout their lives and learn how to live in respectful covenantal relationship with one another
  • deepen the connection among UU congregations so that they may be agents of social transformation addressing inequities and injustices in our broader community.

Whether you are a lay leader, minister, religious educator or church staff member of an MBD congregation, or just looking for a UU church in your area, we're here to help you!
