WHAT TO EXPECT IN WORSHIP-– We gather every Sunday in worship to remind ourselves of what matters most in life and to live more deeply.
Elements of our typical Unitarian Universalist Sunday morning worship service include:
- Gathering piano music for settling in
- Words of welcome
- Lighting a flaming chalice, the symbol of our faith
- A multigenerational 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.
- Stay after for coffee and conversation!
From time to time, worships incorporate holiday celebrations, multigenerational plays and pageants, longer musical performances, and coming-of-age ceremonies. We offer childcare and learning programs for children and youth during the Sunday service.
