Who we are
The Olympia Brown Unitarian Universalist Church is affiliated with the Unitarian Universalist Association of North America.
Accepting our diversity and bonded by our similarities, Olympia Brown UU Church is an open supportive religious community.
Our liberal religious tradition nurtures, educates and challenges people as we shepherd each other, family and friends, through life’s pilgrimage. We come together to develop, share and celebrate religious and personal values that give help, hope and new life to all.
We seek to empower individuals; we work for a just world. We are a voice for love among people, peace among nations and reverence for our planet.
Our congregation, founded in 1842, is one of the earliest churches in Racine, originally called The Universalist Society of Racine.
In 1878, the Rev. Olympia Brown — the first woman in the United States to be ordained by a regularly established denomination — came to our church and served as its minister until 1887.
The history of our congregation is filled with activities of social justice, and our principles affirm the inherent worth and dignity of every person. We follow the footsteps of our Unitarian and Universalist heritages to provide a strong voice for social justice and liberal religion.
Our congregation is a member of the MidAmerica Region UUA and the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA).
