UU COMMUNITY WORSHIP

June 7, 2026

“The Method is the Message” 

Rev. Tim Temerson & Tori Goodloe

Does Unitarian Universalism have a core message? Today’s service will explore this question through the lens of our approach to faith development/religious education, asking if our message is found not in a single belief or theology, but rather in the way we teach and learn and grow together.  

LINK TO ZOOM SERVICE

Those joining via Zoom are welcome to stay after the service until 12:30pm for online “Coffee Hour”.
