Our congregation’s worship is, generally, more traditional, but we are definitely very relaxed about it. If we get through an entire service without at least one mistake, slip-of-the-tongue, or something else to distract or amuse us, we’d consider that kind of boring.

Elements of a typical Unitarian Universalist worship service include:

  • Words of welcome
  • Lighting a chalice, the symbol of our faith
  • A multi-generational segment, such as a “story for all ages”
  • Music, both instrumental and vocal and in a variety of styles
  • A time for lifting up the joys and concerns of the congregation
  • A meditation or prayer
  • Readings—ancient or contemporary
  • A sermon given by a professional minister, a guest speaker, or a member of the congregation
  • An offering, collecting financial donations for the congregation or for justice work in the community.

From time to time, worships incorporate holiday celebrations, multi-generational elements or presentations, longer musical performances, and coming-of-age ceremonies. We offer childcare and learning programs for children and youth during the Sunday service.
