Our History
The Fourth Unitarian Society of Westchester was founded in 1957, in Mohegan Lake, NY. Affectionately referred to as "Fourth UU," we are a member of the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations (the UUA), headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. In the spring of 2017, we officially changed our name to "Fourth Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Westchester".
Following the purchase of the current meetinghouse in 1961, members donated much time and effort for renovations and also created a Memorial Garden. In 2004, after a 47-year history of being exclusively lay-led, we decided to engage in a shared ministry by hiring a part-time minister. Since that time we have shared our pulpit with several ministers; our current minister, Cindy Davidson, joined us in 2018.
