Child care is available at all services.

March 7: Seasons of Love

One of the most famous and beloved bible passages comes from Ecclesiastes: “For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose...” These days, though, it seems that the normal rhythm of the seasons has been upset and we have lost our sustaining connection to the natural cycles of the earth. Join Rev. Liz Stevens as she reflects on the question, “How do we know what to do... and when?” Choir sings at the second service.

March 14: Guest Speaker: Cecilia Kingman-Miller Come, Build a Land!

“Come build the land, my people, we seek!” So one of our beloved hymns sings, and these days that invitation has a certain urgency. We live in a time of great danger and great possibility, a transformational moment in human history. This Sunday we’ll consider the role religious communities can play in creating a new vision for the future of humanity.

The Rev. Cecilia Kingman is the minister of Cascade UU Fellowship in Wenatchee, WA. She is an award winning preacher and a consultant on congregational stewardship and growth. Rev. Kingman has led workshops on creating community in times of transition and instability, and was co-dean of the UU University Stewardship track at the 2009 General Assembly.

March 21: The Big There-There

Christians pray in the name of Jesus. Muslims pray to Allah. Unitarian Universalists? “To Whom it May Concern.” Join Rev. Liz Stevens as she reflects on the ways we pray, and the words that get in the way.

Choir sings at the second service.

Our ChaliceWe meet for worship each Sunday at 9:30 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. from the first Sunday after Labor Day through Memorial Day, and then at 10:00 a.m. from the first Sunday after Memorial Day through Labor Day. Our children's religious education classes meet during the 9:30 a.m. service, or at 10:00 am in the summer.

The Fellowship Hour follows worship services, with coffee and tea served, and supervision is provided for children on our playground. Our Sunday services draw from Jewish, Christian and earth-centered religious traditions, as well as from the wisdom of Eastern religious thought. We also seek meaning in personal experience and witness, social issues, literature and the sciences.

Our services begin with a warm welcome and the lighting of our Unitarian Universalist symbol, the flaming chalice. Our minister leads services about 3 times per month with the support of lay leaders and our Worship Committee. We also have guest speakers and fully lay-led services throughout the year.

A rich tapestry of music is interwoven with each service, with exuberant congregational hymns, a wonderful choir, and beautiful piano solos. We are a singing congregation, enjoying the spiritual connection music brings us each week.

During the months from mid-September to mid-June, the children begin the morning in the sanctuary with their parents, proceeding to their classes after a time of "sharing for all ages." Our sanctuary has wide windows which look out over a majestic forest, encouraging us to honor the spiritual in the natural world, and to "walk softly on the earth." You'll find great diversity in how our members dress on Sunday mornings - but "Northwest casual" (yes, even jeans) is the norm for many of us.
