Robyn TraversThe Unitarian Universalist Church of the North Hills is steeped in history while reaching for a future for ourselves, our community and the world. We were first convened in 1958 and later moved into this dairy barn in 1962. Pittsburgh is a city which is currently experiencing an incredible resurgence. It is an exciting place to be both nearby the city and in our church! We hope that as you look for a position that you will consider us. After 17 years with one DLFD and now into our second year with an interim DLFD, we are ready to welcome someone who will become part of the warp and weft of our community. There is much to be done! We look forward to becoming better acquainted with you!
