Unitarian Universalist services are similar to most other churches. There are readings and hymns, often live instrumental or choral music. There is a time for people to share significant events in their lives. There is usually a story for children early in the service, before they leave the sanctuary for their classes downstairs. Unless otherwise noted all services and children's religious education programs occur on Sunday at 10:30am. Child care is available.
You are welcome here, to visit and to explore with us. At the end of most services, we hold an open discussion with the speaker. Then we break for coffee and more conversation. We look forward to meeting you and invite you to help us shape our liberal religious community.

Threats to Marriage Political leaders, at the state and national level are sponsoring and speaking to proposed legislation which, in their words, seeks to “protect marriage”. What is at issue here? How should we, as people of faith, respond to these proposals? |

Too Many Choices? We tend to believe that having lots of choices will make us happy. The paradox, as social scientists are discovering, is that the precise opposite is true. Let us consider our choices for the summer, and for our lives, from practical and spiritual standpoints. After church, please stay for a half-hour Sermon Idea Generating Brainstorming Session with Amanda; or feel free to send ideas for sermons to her via email.. |
