Honoring Those That Serve

Join us for church on November 9, 2025 and stick along afterwards for Potluck!

  • 9:30am Religious Education

  • 11:00am Sunday Service

  • 12:00pm Potluck

“Honoring Those That Serve”

As Veteran's Day approaches, Rev. Tiffany leads us in honoring all who have served though military service. What does it mean to put your life on the line for your values? What does it mean to serve and protect? Unitarian Universalists hold a variety of beliefs regarding war, peace and military service, but one common thread that we hold to is the inherent worth and dignity of all who serve. Rev. Tiffany reflects on the many ways we live our values, and the power of her own father's example as a career Air Force officer.

It's always fun to have a plateful of tasty treats while browsing the silent auction offerings and vying for special live auction items.

Gone But Not Forgotten

Don’t forget Daylight Savings time is this Sunday!

Join us for church on November 2, 2025!

  • 9:30am Religious Education

  • 11:00am Sunday Service

  • 12:00pm Coffee Hour

“Gone But Not Forgotten”

This time of year many religious traditions take time to honor their dearly departed, and the Remembering service here in our church has become an annual tradition. During this service Rev. Tiffany names and honors the people connected to this congregation that have died this year, as well as important figures in the world. And then we share a ritual of remembering together. You are invited to bring photos or mementos of your departed friends and loved ones to place on the altar during this service.
