Welcome
Our Mission
Guided by Unitarian Universalist principles, the North Chapel aspires to be a congregation that nurtures the growth and supports the needs of its members, sustains a strong spiritual life within a loving church community, and seeks to have a positive impact on the world around us.
We are a fellowship of individuals who find strength in our diversity.
Each individual among us brings a unique collection of experiences and insights. We enjoy the richness this contributes to our services, our socializing, our music, our shared joys and concerns, our discussions and our vision of the future.
What Makes Us A Community
Our Beliefs
Unitarian Universalism is a caring, open-minded religion that encourages seekers to find their own spiritual path. Our faith draws on many religious sources, welcoming people with different beliefs. We are united by shared values, not by creed or dogma. Our congregations are places where we gather to nurture our spirits and put our faith into action by helping to make our communities—and the world—a better place.
Our History
The North Universalist Chapel Society was formed by the people of the Woodstock, Vermont area in the late 1700’s when, as was typical in New England, Vermont residents were required to support and attend the established church in their town unless they declared in writing that they belonged to another.
With it’s classic white steeple and columned entry, our church is lovingly called North Chapel. The history of the church with its Revere Bell and Thayer organ is fascinating.
Our Services
Sunday services our held at 10 am in our Sanctuary.
