9:30am Religious Education
11:00am Sunday Service
12:00pm Coffee Hour
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.

Sign up in the sanctuary or by emailing thanksgiving@hvuuc.org to tell us who’s coming & what you’re bringing.
Everyone is welcome!
