Where do we converge? Imagine the beliefs of our world religions overlaid in a single multi-orb Venn image. Join us to experience the intersection of Hindu, Bahai, Muslim, Buddhist, Jewish, Christian, and Unitarian Universalist faiths. Let us focus together on the jewel all faiths share.
FUCH is looking to its 75th anniversary in 2028. What value might there be in looking at its past to celebrate its future — including looking at places that are harder to look at together? Our Hope for Us Coach, Rev. Samantha Wilson, will share her reflections on healing and accountability through the lessons of her own ancestors and the peace-making efforts of healers who try to make a different future possible by tending their community’s pasts.

In 1977, Archbishop Óscar Romero was a cautious conservative who avoided conflict. Three weeks after his appointment, his friend was killed and everything changed.
His story invites us to ask: In a society of hardened positions, how do we make space for transformation? What kind of community can we build that welcomes those who are ready to change?
This is a sermon about the slow, sacred work of thawing, both in the world and in ourselves.
The first freedom of religion laws were enacted by the first (and only) Unitarian King. Throughout the centuries, Unitarians and Universalists have led support for freedom, social justice, and human rights.
From heroes then and now, we will draw inspiration, courage, and even tactics to lovingly protect all beings in our vibrant, fragile world.
Our communities need empowerment.
How can we practice to make our voices heard and not be intimidated?
For this, we need partners, just like we need partners when playing ping-pong.
Join us at 6pm for holiday singing, at 6:30pm for a No-Rehearse Christmas pageant, and at 7:15pm for refreshments. Rev. Deborah will be leading the celebrations with big help from Thomas, Noe and the choir, Sorcha on drama, Laura Goemans on costumes — and we hope you will participate!

How are you doing at keeping up hope in these trying times? Did you learn ways from your ancestors – familial or communal? Or maybe you’re gleaning from wisdom writers – those from ancient times and those from nooks and crannies of the internet? On November 2, we will dig into some wisdom about how to keep – and share – hope. Come, take a deep breath, and know that we’re in this together.
What if a family that is creepy and kooky has something profound to teach us about love? On October 26, we will explore how the wonderfully weird Addams Family embodies our UU Shared Values through what we might call “sacred seeing” – the revolutionary practice of loving each other not despite our shadows, but including them. From Morticia’s moonlit garden to Wednesday’s truth-telling, discover how these delightfully macabre misfits show us what it looks like when love truly sits at the center of community. Snap snap!
Costumes are encouraged by not mandatory.
