Back by popular demand! Okay, nobody actually demanded it, but last year we had a service where we got to know another person better and it was well-received. So we are doing it again. Join us to know and be known.
Welcome!
We are always delighted to welcome guests! If this is your first time visiting a Unitarian Universalist church or our congregation, here’s some idea of what to expect.
