We are always happy to welcome newcomers and we will try to make you feel at home and comfortable.

We respect each person's beliefs and our congregation is diverse and we cherish that diversity. If this sounds good to you we hope you will try us out by joining us on a Sunday morning for church service with coffee and conversation afterwards. We look forward to meeting you.


There are seven principles which Unitarian Universalist congregations Affirm and Promote:

  1. The inherent worth and dignity of every person
  2. Justice, equity, and compassion in human relations
  3. Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations
  4. A free and responsible search for truth and meaning
  5. The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within congregations and society at large
  6. The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all
  7. Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part

May 11th: "Your Children Are Not Your Children" by Rev. John Cullinan

It's Mother's Day, but today's message is for everyone: We are all raising the next generation of UUs. Parent or not, married or single, very young or very old, the congregation is a powerful influence in the lives of our young people. We cannot escape it, so why not embrace it?
Service Leader: Steve Tenbrink

May 18th: "What They Dreamed Be Ours To Do" by Rev. John Cullinan

In the conclusion to this year's"UU Identity" series, we turn to the question "Where are we going?" How do we honor the religious legacy that's been handed down to us? How do we continue to make this tradition a "Living Tradition" and how do we ensure it lives on after we're gone?
Service Leader: Mary Hrbek

May 25th: "A Story of Two Dannys" by Rev. John Cullinan

A reflection for Memorial Day. One Danny is a wounded medic. The other wants to be an Army chaplain. Both have inspired and challenged me. These are their stories. And mine. And yours.

June 1st: "Flower Communion and Recognition Service" by Rev. John Cullinan and Joyce Zaugg, CDRE

Intergenerational Service. Join us in our annual flower communion and in recognizing and celebrating the hard work our RE teachers and volunteers do for our youth.
