Channing is a small, open, welcoming congregation. The congregation’s founders reached back to the roots of American Unitarianism in naming their congregation after William Ellery Channing, author of the 1819 sermon that defined the faith.

Reverend Jane Smith has been serving as the minister of Channing Memorial since August 1, 2019.
