Our Stories
Every congregation is shaped by the stories of its people, its history, and its enduring symbols. At the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Norwich, our story is woven from generations of seekers, dreamers, and doers who have come together to build a welcoming spiritual community rooted in Unitarian Universalist values.
From our early days in the historic Chelsea Square district in downtown Norwich, to our decades at 148 Broadway, our congregation has been a steadfast presence in Norwich, advocating for justice, compassion, and spiritual exploration. Discover the pivotal moments, influential leaders, and defining events that have shaped our path by visiting the Our History page.
Our identity is also expressed through powerful symbols that reflect our principles and shared purpose. The flaming chalice, a symbol of hope, transformation, and the light of truth, holds special meaning for us as Unitarian Universalists. Learn more about the history and significance of the chalice and other symbols we hold dear by visiting the Our Symbol: The Flaming Chalice page.
Our stories continue to unfold through the lives and voices of our members. Whether it’s a moment of personal transformation, a connection made in fellowship, or a memory of a powerful sermon, these stories connect us, inspire us, and remind us that we are all part of something greater.
