Who We Are image

We believe that diversity of religious expression enriches us all. Here you will find a variety of traditions and expressions, including: liberal Christians, Jews, humanists, atheists, agnostics, pagans, Buddhists and others discussing our beliefs and learning from each other.

What We Believe image

We do not have one set of beliefs that everyone must share in order to join. We are not guided by a creed or dogma, but by a quest for truth and meaning. We are a caring, open minded religion that encourages you to seek your own spiritual path, wherever it may lead.

What We Do image

We are a welcoming congregation; we promote equal opportunities for all people and advocate the rights and acceptance of each individual.

We nurture community by offering programs, activities and worship services that enhance the values we hold in common, and honor the differences among us. We accept, encourage and challenge one another on our spiritual and personal journeys.

A Welcoming Congregation...

Sunday Services - 11:00 a.m. (click sermon title for the description)

  • May 26 - As I Walk Through The Valley
    Joel Araujo
    Having faith is easy when you're doing well. There's nothing to challenge it, no need to review it. However, faith is usually tested during times of crisis. While UUism offers the theological freedom to change one's beliefs, that freedom comes at a price. Join Joel Araujo as he explores the events that test our faith, and what a UU response could look like.
  • June 2 - Flower Communion and R.E. Sunday
    Rev. Amy Russell & Shannon Harper, DRE; Intergenerational
    We'll celebrate our traditional flower communion, honor our RE teachers, and enjoy hearing from some of our young people. Jim McCutcheon will honor us with his delightful guitar music. Please bring a flower to share as a symbol of what we each bring to this community.
  • June 9 - Surprising and Compelling: the Amazing Grace of Anti-Racism
    Joel Araujo & members of the Examining Whiteness class
    We are not just born white, we learn to be white. When we examine our whiteness, we can be amazed by what we discover about ourselves. The grace that comes from knowing ourselves and taking action on what we learn is the subject of this service.
  • June 16 - Walking The Path Together: This Beloved Community
    Rev. Amy Russell's last sermon
    On this last Sunday of Rev. Russell's ministry with us, she will share stories of her ministry here, the joys, the sadness, and the ridiculous. Join us in this farewell celebration.
  • June 23 - Trust
    Carol Narigon
    What do you mean when you say you trust someone? Or when you believe you can't? In this service, we'll peel open the word "trust" and examine its fuzzy, gray insides.
  • June 30 - I Wish I Knew How
    Heather Holland-Schroeder
