Reverend Nathan W. Detering, Minister

Welcome to the Unitarian Universalist Area Church at First Parish in Sherborn! Ours is a covenantal faith, drawn together by shared promises rather than conformity of belief. We promise to be a community of love, caring for those within and outside our walls. We promise to be a community of holiness, seeking the sacred in each person and in all Life. We promise to be community of service, working to build a more fair and peaceful world. We invite you to learn more about us, and we look forward to learning more about you.
