We offer many opportunities for worship and fellowship via Zoom.
|
|
Our Zoom services can be accessed using the links below:
Sunday Worship is our traditional service setting and includes hymns, readings, and a sermon or speaker. Join us every Sunday from 10 to 11 am.
We’ve added a “coffee hour” to our Sunday services!
After our services, stay and chat with a small group. We’re experimenting on what kind of chats we can offer, and if you have an idea for a chat topic, let us know!
This Sunday May 10th: Life’s Thresholds
Life is filled with transitions and changes — birth, adoption, adolescence, partnering, separating, retirement, aging, death, and more. How does the holy show up in these moments and changes? And how can we approach these thresholds with spiritual grounding and grace? All are welcome!

If you are looking for a forever gift for Mother’s day, we have 20 light purple perennial asters that will get 3 feet tall and a foot wide. Marci Linde and Birgitt Paul can deliver them to your house. They will be bare root and wrapped. They will need to go into their new earthly homes at delivery (or keep them moist until you pick the perfect spot).
They are $5 each. You can put cash in an envelope and tape it to your front door or send a check to the church with “Garden Asters” in the memo line. Call/email Marci (marcilinde@gmail.com 307-221-4128 or Birgitt at birgittjohanna@gmail.com 307-214-7425). We will post on FB page when we have none left.
Happy Mother’s Day from the UUCC perennial garden card included with every delivery!!

Important! Please Read!
We have been experiencing a growing issue with peanut residue in the building, especially in the library. Please, do not bring peanut products into the building, and if your little ones enjoy their peanut butter snacks before coming, please be sure their hands are clean before they touch surfaces used by everyone. We are seeing almost daily allergic reactions, so we ask you to please be diligent. It may be an inconvenience to you, but it can be life-threatening to those who are allergic.
