Welcome to our joyful, creative, transforming community! Beacon is an intentionally diverse and inclusive community of spiritual seeking and socially conscious people from New Westminster, the Tri-Cities, and other municipalities east of Vancouver. We invite you to explore this web site and its links to see what our community and Unitarianism has to offer you.

The Passionate Humanist
Guest Speaker: Jim Stephenson
Service Coordinator: Marilyn Medén
Unitarian Universalists have been referred to as God’s frozen people. We appreciate dispassionate analysis and a sober search for truth. We tend not to evangelize. and frequently don’t admit that we go to church. While we may be “spiritual”, we are not “religious” and usually don’t practice elaborate rituals. Does this mean we are lifeless and boring? Does a skeptical bent mean that we have no place for passion, enthusiasm, zeal, wonder, and joy? Jim Stephenson, an accounting consultant and former Green Party candidate, with degrees in engineering, business, and economics, will share his experience living life with passion, enthusiasm, zeal, wonder, and joy. May the farce be with us.
Children & Youth Program: The children will continue to build on their understanding of, and respect for, trees through multiple modes of learning. The youth will question: “What should I do with my life?”
