“The Religious Education (RE) programs are more than glue sticks, glitter, and crafts. It is about creating spaces of belonging, listening carefully, laughing wholeheartedly, caring deeply, and nurturing connections. It is about becoming a community and supporting each other as we learn and grow together. And it is about being — living our values in the world.”

— JES ZIMMER, Director of Religious Education

I’d like the minister to get ahold of me
The minister meets regularly with congregants to discuss Unitarian Universalism and personal faith, provide pastoral counseling in times of transition and crises, for prayer, or for chats over a cup of tea.

I’d like someone from the Caring Committee to get ahold of me
The church’s Caring Committee assists members and friends who’d like a visit from a fellow congregant and those seeking short-term assistance with groceries, meals, and gas.
