Weekly Update

Sunday Morning

"The Unity Club -

Inspiration for the Future"

Led by Sharon Barrett, Stacy Spies, and Kris Allen

According to our written church history, the Unity Club was a “spark plug for church life” in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. With this month’s theme of “Heritage”, we will look back in time to learn more about what this group was up to. We’ll have views from the pews to share thoughts on how the Unity Club’s love of fun and good fellowship can serve as inspiration for future endeavors at UUCSW.

This service will be held in the sanctuary and on Zoom:

Next Religious Exploration Class:

"First Principle: Each Person is Important"

This Sunday, Oct 15 at 9:30 am

in the Frog Room

We will start together in the Frog Room, and then we will break into 2 groups: PreK-3rd grade & 4-6th grade. Kids are encouraged to think about a time when they were made to feel important, and maybe a time when they felt left out or ignored. How can we treat others in a way that makes everyone feel important and included? We look forward to this discussion with our youth!
