Growing Beyond our Roots: What Are We & How Did We Get Here?
Rev. Dr. Roger Jones preaching with Rev. Lucy Bunch, Ministerial Intern Sophia McKean, Worship Associate Connor Lane, Pianist Irina Tchantceva.
Our comparative-religion theme in October is Protestantism. Unitarianism emerged on the liberal end of the Protestant Reformation in the 1500s in Central Europe and 1800s in America. After many transformations over the years, Unitarian Universalism looks a lot different today. With a great variety of beliefs among UUs, including non-theistic paths, is there anything Protestant present in our movement?
- After service: Annual Social Justice Activity Fair on the Patio (learn about our justice groups and programs)
- Young Adults Meet & Greet at 12:00 pm

Loving Every Body: Disability Justice
Ministerial Intern Sophia McKean preaching with Rev. Lucy Bunch, Worship Associate Eric Gudz, Music Director Anthony Tavianini, Pianist Irina Tchantceva
Disability is a huge topic, involving many needs and concerns. This service is an invitation to begin exploring the world of disability justice. How might we better care for ourselves and one another in a world that does not always value every body as it should?
- Spiritual Practice: Tai Chi & Qi Gong in the Fahs Classroom at 9:30
- Congregational Meeting after service (est. 11:50 am) in the sanctuary and on Zoom

Calling our Beloved Dead
A Circle Service for all age led by Rev. Lucy Bunch with Rev. Dr. Roger Jones, Ministerial Intern Sophia McKean, Worship Associates Courtney O’Neill and Connor Lane, UUSS Choir, Music Director Anthony Tavianini, Pianist Irina Tchantceva.
We come together in community to honor our loved ones who have died and whom we wish to remember and celebrate. We will read the roll call of names of those in our UUSS community and families who have died in the past year. We will feature our altar of remembrance during the service and have a chance to share our memories of those who have gone before. Come with an open heart. Bring a photo or an object of remembrance for our shared altar.
If you know UUSS members or other loved ones who have died since October 2024 and would like their names to be read aloud in the Honor Roll, please email elaine@uuss.org or call the office by Oct. 17.
