Welcome to the Community Unitarian Universalist Church
Nurture your spirit. Heal our community.
Services begin at 10:30 am every Sunday morning.
Come join us in person or by Zoom.
Who Are We?
We are a people of faith with open minds, loving hearts and helping hands. CUUC has been a part of the Tri-Cities since 1948, helping families explore world religions, human diversity, ethics and responsible living. We keep our minds open to the religious questions people have struggled with in all times and places. We believe that personal experience, conscience, and reason should be the final authorities in religion. In the end, religious authority lies not in a book, person, or institution, but in ourselves. CUUC’s services and programs support each person’s life-long growth and spiritual learning. Come as you are. Come as who you are. We are a Welcoming Congregation. Our differing strengths and gifts join to form a caring and vibrant church.
We are Unitarian Universalists
Please Join Us for Our Upcoming Services
August Services
August 24, 10:30 am: Blessing of the Backpacks and Briefcases
Regina McConaghy, Virginia Tomlinson and others
A new school year beckons. As Unitarian Universalists, we are all life-long learners, even if it's been a long time since we last sat in a classroom. What learning are you looking forward to? What learning do you need to do, but need support from your faith community in order to embrace going about it?
Bring your backpack, briefcase, or other bag you carry with you as you go about your life, and have it filled with a bounty of (invisible) blessings in this joyful worship. We will also be celebrating Donut Communion as part of this service. If you plan to attend via Zoom, plan on having a donut handy so you can participate in the guided meditation and treat.
This will also be the final Sunday to bring a contribution to the Back To School Supply Drive in support of My Friend's Place.
August 31, 10:30 am: We are a Community of Communities
Virginia Tomlinson and Alex Emig with musicians Raymond & Nancy Brungard
Get ready to learn about our CUUC community. While we gather on Sunday mornings in our sanctuary, we each bring so much into the room. Who are we? Are we life-long Tri-Citians, relative newcomers, or new residents? Did we grow-up UU or find it later? If you weren’t at CUUC on Sunday mornings, where would you be? On this Sunday of Labor Day weekend, are/were you ever a Labor Union member? Hope you can join this highly interactive and designed to be fun Sunday service. This service is in-person only and will not be on Zoom.
September Services
September 7, 10:30am: "Gather in and Mingle"
Regina McConaghy with musicians Joan Gray & Hollis Bredeweg
We center ourselves in community as we observe rituals of Ingathering. It is Unitarian Universalist tradition to mark this point in the calender and church year with a celebration of Water, the source of life, which connects us all. Please bring a small container of water from your home or some place of significance to you for the Mingling of the Waters Ceremony. A hands-on, interactive service for all.
September 14, 10:30am: "With happiest thoughts of God"
Leigh Terrass
We don’t talk about God much here at CUUC. What is/was the Universalist view of God? Leigh will share some of the history and the thoughts of her great-grandfather, W.W. Jackson, as he explained his views in writing in 1941, when he was 85 years old.
September 21, 10:30am: "23.5°"
Hollis Bredeweg
Concerning the power and peril of Story. Perhaps Gutenberg did us no favors….
September 28, 10:30am: "Meet the Moment: GA 2025 & more"
Marla Marvin and Virginia Tomlinson with musician David Anderson
"Meet the Moment" was the theme for General Assembly (GA) 2025, the largest annual convening of UUs in-person and online. Marla & Virginia were the delegates from CUUC. You'll learn about the business and sessions from the assembly AND how "Meet the Moment" is a framework for our continued work based on our values.
