"The Journey" A Bridging Service

Join us in uplifting and celebrating the bridging of one of our youth, Abby Ruggles, as she sets off on a journey into college and young adulthood. In this service we will contemplate the thresholds of life and how we as members of a congregation can provide blessings, advice of direction but cannot make the journey itself for bridging youth. In this service we gift our support and encouragement to Abby and send her off with wind in her sails.

NSUU Church 2022 Annual Meeting will be held

"Remembering Well" 

Memorial Day ushers in the official beginning of summer but it was born of the need to remember well those Americans who died in the course of their military service. Memorial Day gives us the opportunity to mourn those losses as a nation. But there are other “national losses” we’re facing. How can we remember well those 1 million souls lost to the Corona Virus and the victims of gun violence that plagues our nation?  Memorial Day invites us to lament all of these “national losses,” honor the dead and advocate for peace.

Covid test information from the Caring Team 

A third round of free Covid tests is now available from the government through the United States Postal Service. Go to website CovidTests.gov. A few simple questions and you should be receiving 8 free tests. There will be an expiration date on these tests, but as more and more data is available the period of test reliability is increasing. If you have cared for your test well in a clean, dry place not subject to freezing or excessive heat, and the control line is still visible, in general the test should be good for 18-24 months.
