Worship brings us together as a community. Every Sunday morning, worship leaders weave together readings, instrumental music, prayerful meditations, singing, and a sermon.
We begin our service by lighting our flaming chalice, a symbol of Unitarian Universalism and our hopes for justice. Following our story for all ages and an enthusiastic community greeting time, the children leave with their teachers for religious education classes.
Our Sunday services start at 10 AM. Services are offered in-person and virtually, via Zoom (with closed captioning) and YouTube. Families with children are welcome to attend our services. We also offer religious education programs for children downstairs during the service. Find out more on our Education Pages.
Once a month, we have a multi-generational service that we hope touches and appeals to people of all ages. This service is often participatory, and children remain in the sanctuary instead of attending religious education classes.
Rev. Janet Bush, our minister, leads worship for us three Sundays a month. Our Worship Committee is responsible for lay-led worship during the summer and several times from September to June. Members of the Worship Committee also contribute to and participate in minister-led worship, and assist with special services.
