NORTHBOROUGH – First Parish Church Unitarian Universalist of Northborough has welcomed Rev. Steve Wilson as the church’s new minister.

He said he is looking forward to getting to know Northborough and the surrounding communities.

“I feel proud, grateful and lucky that I am a UU minister,” Wilson said. “In recent years, our culture’s attention has both shortened and turned away from contemplation and toward popular entertainment. It has also become increasingly mobile and segregated across generations.”

He continued, “Amid this landscape, the church has become a rare place where people can connect and engage. In church, at best, we care for one another, cultivate our characters, hone our consciences and are asked to act out of our commitments and deepest values, and I am honored to be a part of it.”

Wilson previously served at a parish in California before relocating to be near family in Lexington.
