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 often a story for children early in the service, before they leave the sanctuary for Religious Education in the chapel. You are welcome to visit and to explore with us. Wear whatever makes you comfortable!

May 16 Northlake Choir & Jim Mason |
Music, Memory, and History What can a single song transmit about the history of a country? The Spanish Civil War was an epic tragedy. Angela Figuera wrote a poem during the war that expresses the anguish felt by the Spanish people, but the poem was suppressed for years. In 1999 the poem was set to music for unaccompanied choir. It is one of the most haunting choral pieces I have ever heard. Come hear the Northlake Choir perform this composition and others at our spring concert. |
May 23 Rev. Marian Stewart & |
Ain’t I a Woman? Daring to speak, Sojourner Truth and Margaret Fuller were feminist trailblazers – two hundred years ago. Truth was a slave while Fuller hobnobbed with intellectual elites (Emerson, Thoreau), but each woman spoke boldly to the issues of the day. Their words still ring true. Join us as we get creative in celebrating women’s voices. |
May 30 Linda Lane |
