Welcome to the Unitarian Universalist Society of Mill Creek (UUSMC) Web Site. We hope that this site will help you to get to know us and our values.

Located in Delaware's Pike Creek Valley near the border of Hockessin and Newark, the UUSMC offers a liberal religious experience that encourages spiritual growth through the exploration and discovery of the world around us.

Our membership is strong and growing and we are a welcoming congregation. We care deeply about giving back to the community through our Social Action committee; our Religious Education department teaches our youth to be independent thinkers; and our minister invites us to respond back to her sermons.

Please visit us in person and see if Unitarian Universalism is right for you.

Our Mission

We are a liberal religious community which explores and celebrates life through the spiritual, rational, and emotional in ourselves, each other, and the wider world.

We are committed to living the Unitarian Universalist Principles in all our relationships and welcome everyone to join us in celebration and service.
