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

“Burning Man Principles and UU” Alicia Boyd
What do those hippies in the desert have to do with UU faith? Actually, there is a lot of overlap. Your CUUC Board Prez has been a “burner” since 2007. Hear about how the Burning Man Principles are as much a part of her faith as the UU Values or Principles.
October worship services
Services begin at 10:30 and generally last 60 - 75 minutes. All services are available on zoom, unless noted below. Our theme for October is “Living the Questions.” Services are followed by time for coffee and conversation, and the 4th Sunday is SUUper Sunday, a potluck lunch for all.

“Blessing of the Animals” Loraine Bottorff, Regina McConaghy and musician Dan Strom
In the Catholic tradition, today is the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals. While our tradition doesn’t formally venerate saints, we do celebrate the interdependent web of life and the special place that animals hold in our lives. Please join us as we remember the animal companions who have gone before us and celebrate the ones who are still with us on life’s journey.
If you’d like to receive a blessing for your animal friends, please bring their photo, collar, or other significant object. Please note that our physical sanctuary cannot accommodate live animals, but our Zoom sanctuary can! If you’ll be joining online, please consider keeping your camera on and letting us meet the critters who share your home.

"This is our home, but not just ours" Virginia Tomlinson and others, with the CUUC Choir and Ellen Fillion
On this eve of Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we’ll explore anti-oppression efforts within the UUA as well as what it means to recognize the history of our homelands. How do we live the questions of ownership? Responsibility? Oppression? This service is based on resources made available through Woven Faith, UU religious education for the whole church.

“From Scarcity to Abundance: Cultivating an Ethos of Generosity” Rev. Ellie Kilpatrick, Wanda Clifton, and musicians Hollis Bredeweg, Raymond Brungard, and Joan Gray
Have you ever noticed that children's books and tv shows revel in a culture of generosity, but adult culture tends to reject it? Join Rev. Ellie as we explore how we can lean back into the lessons we learned in childhood to be a people of collective sharing and all the wondrous ways it improves both ourselves and our world.

“‘Peace Smells Like My Pillow’ and Other Tales from Building Belonging at Peace Camp” Regina McConaghy and others, with musician Dave Cohoe
This August, CUUC partnered with our friends at Shalom UCC to offer the ministry of a full-week day camp for kids ages 6-13 here in the Tri-Cities. This worship offers participants a peek into the camp experience, including some of the music and reflections we did at camp to grow our capacities as peacemakers. Nurturing the change we wish to see in the world starts with nurturing change in our own hearts. What seeds of peace are stirring and sprouting in your heart?
