We feel the need to explain a little about the words "Unitarian" & "Universalism". Dictionary.com states that:
Unitarian:
A person who maintains that God is one being, rejecting the doctrine of the Trinity.
and
Universalism:
The doctrine of universal salvation.
We also believe in Apocatastasis:
The doctrine that Satan and all sinners will ultimately be restored to God.
We hope this helps you!

We do have a set Liturgy so , in my opinion, we are Liturgical. Some portions of the Liturgy may be skipped depending on the make up of the church, for example, if we have no children present for the Children's Ministry part of the Liturgy, it may be skipped.
