We welcome you to worship with us this Sunday at 10:30 am! We rejoice and grow together through shared ministry, meditation, and music. Are you always right? Others always wrong? Is the bad time you’re having at work always the boss’s fault? If “yes,” don’t worry. You’re not alone. You’re probably an honorary member of...
Bread Communion What is your heritage? Who are your people? What traditions do you preserve and share with your friends and family? Everyone is invited to participate in this UU Wausau tradition by bringing a bread (or baked good) of your family or heritage to share. And of course, bring the story, or stories, that...
Thanksgiving especially, but also much of the winter holiday season, is a time for gratitude. Not simply to feel it, but to show it. This Sunday will start with a short homily. Then the microphone will be turned over to the congregation who will be invited to share a short (2-3 minute) reflection on some...
Meaning, Morals, Logic and Awe - The Rev. Suzelle Lynch preaching Do you eschew all belief in the supernatural, yet still feel a deep sense of meaning when you experience the wonders of nature? Do you affirm that even though science and reason explain most matters, there are still things that inspire awe? Do you...
A Season Best Savored Slowly – The Rev’d Brian Mason preaching Being an adult is cool, but only kinda. For starters, holidays aren’t quite as simple as they once were. Loss, stress, war, cultural nihilism, bifocals, taxes, winter. But then, lest we forget, there’s also Dolly Parton, Oreos, laser tag, and seeds planted somewhere waiting...

Thou Shalt Have a Thing - The Rev. Brian Mason, preaching Let’s face it, we all like to be seen as—or feel—special. Often, it starts in grade school, takes on a life of its own in high school, and in adulthood we’re willing to pay for it. We’ve all wanted to be known for that...
Trapped – The Rev. Brian Mason, preaching. Many of us have stuck with things because we felt trapped. We had ample evidence suggesting it wouldn’t end well, that we wouldn’t enjoy it (whatever it is), that it’d bring us down and yet we stuck with it as if it was a sentence rendered by a...
