The Universalist Unitarian Church of Riverside, previously known as the All Souls Universalist Church, is a Universalist Unitarian church located in Riverside, California, United States.

It was built during 1891-92. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as "All Souls Universalist Church" in 1978.[3] Also it is listed as Riverside city landmark #3.[2][4]
