Universal Life Church Monastery, Non-denominational religious structure in Seattle, United States.
The Universal Life Church Monastery is a non-denominational religious structure in Seattle that handles administrative tasks and provides a meeting room for services. The building combines office spaces with a small worship area and serves as a contact point for the organization of ministers ordained worldwide.
The structure came into being in 2006 following a separation from the original Universal Life Church and has since focused on online ordinations. It has since grown into an independent organization with a permanent location in Seattle.
The name refers to a monastery, yet the rooms function more like an office center and gathering space for believers with many different convictions. Visitors see an open space that relies on mutual respect and welcomes people from almost every faith tradition.
Those seeking information about ceremonies or ordination can use the website or visit in person, though opening hours vary. The entrance is at ground level and the rooms are clearly laid out, making orientation easy.
The 2019 renovation created a worship space inside a building that previously served only administrative purposes. The change allowed services on site for the first time, while the main activity continues to take place in the digital world.
