What to Expect at a UUCF Worship Service
Sunday services start at 11:30 am and are a blend of traditional and contemporary worship practices and routines. Spoken word, music, meditation, and silent reflection are woven into the tapestry of our Sunday worship services.
We gather together in spiritual community because we need constant reminders of what matters most in life. In a world of heartbreak and dehumanization, our congregations and communities call us to our better selves. We learn to live with more wisdom, more connection, and more compassion.
Our Worship Services are weekly reflections that weave together our own thoughts and experiences with music, beauty, poetry, and words that both comfort and challenge.
Our programs for all ages inspire us, and awaken us to our capacities to make a difference in our own lives and in the world.
We are inspired not just by religious sources but by the people with whom we journey: the diverse and spirited Unitarian Universalists. “Our faith is not interested in saving your soul. We’re here to help you unfold the awesome soul you already have.” —Andrea Lerner
