- A Warm
Welcome and Invitation ....
Welcome to the Web Site of the Kidderminster New
Meeting House and to our Unitarian Fellowship. We invite you to share in and to
enjoy our warm and unconditional friendship, either through this web site or,
should you wish it, active participation in our religious services, social
activities and events.
- Our Unitarian forbears have
served the people of Kidderminster in the liberal Christian tradition for over
200 years. We seek to continue that tradition. Spirituality and Community,
Truth, Peace, Social Justice, and the Celebration of all Life and Life Events
are important to us.
- About Visiting Us ....
- Approached through tranquil
gardens off Church Street and close-by the heart of the town, regular 11.00
a.m. Sunday Services are held at New Meeting House as detailed on the Church
Calendar set out below.
- Importantly too, New Meeting
House is open informally to Visitors each Friday morning from 10.00 a.m.to
12.30 a.m. for Coffee/Tea/Biscuits and the Friendship of our Church Community.
- Our Friday Visitors come for
various reasons, for example, to find out more about our activities, religious
and secular, and to share ideas about common human values and concerns. Others
come purely to socialise and chat or, conversely, to spend quiet time alone in
reflection and retreat.
- Friday morning is a good time for
an informal tour of our beautiful Grade II Listed Church, especially if you
would like to explore the possibility of a Unitarian Service to celebrate a
Life Event such as a birth or marriage.
- Whatever the reason for your
visit, you are assured of a warm and friendly welcome.

- Our Beliefs & Spirituality
....
- The Unitarian Movement has
evolved from an early dissenting Christian belief in the Oneness of God, that
is, in the Unity of the Divine. Unitarianism today embraces full and
unconditional freedom of religious thought. We have no fixed creed or dogma.
Personal spiritual growth is encouraged through individual reasoning and
conscience.
- In addition to the teachings of
Jesus, we draw inspiration from those of religious luminaries from other faith
traditions concerned with the higher human values of love, forgiveness,
forbearance and generosity.
- We would like to think that these
values are constant aspirations in our daily lives.
