Unitarian Universalist Church of Arlington, VA

A diverse, welcoming community of open hearts and minds since 1948

Our Beloved Community

    Welcome to UUCA!

    We gather here with hearts and minds open to truth. From one another and from many spiritual traditions we learn how to walk together in the ways of love, building a radically inclusive religious home and working for justice in the neighborhood and the world. In our religious education classes, our kids are inspired to ask questions and to think.

    Visit us online and at the church too. We hope to see you!

I didn't live during the time of American Apartheid. I wasn't even born during that time but I am an heir to that legacy. It amazes me how much Americans don't know about their history especially when it comes to the history of African Americans in…

June Herold replied to the discussion 'A Church Name Change?'
Every time I say the name of UUCAVA aloud and in full, and every time I use the one word "church" to explain where I'm going, I feel very uncomfortable. I wish it wasn't true, but it is. This discomfort hasn't abated since first attending a year ago…

Rev. Mary McKinnon Ganz replied to the discussion 'A Church Name Change?'
John, I too love the word "church," for all the reasons you describe and a few more too. I do wonder though as we become more truly multicultural if we shouldn't consider a more inclusive word like "congregation." I know the fact that we call oursel…

Bill Fogarty replied to the discussion 'A Church Name Change?'
Thanks, John, for your thoughts. You make a strong case for having the word Church in the name. I still have concerns that we have a name that we don't comfortably use, which has lots of unintended consequences. I believe that we added Universalist…

John L. Bohman replied to the discussion 'A Church Name Change?'
I do not favor this personally, but I am willing to go along if the whole congregation wants to change the name after careful consideration. That being said, let me explain why I like our name the way it is. I think we should reflect long and hard b…
