Upcoming Services and Sermons
We gather together on Sunday morning to find meaning and live more deeply. Worship creates connections within, among, and beyond us, calling us to our better selves, calling us to live with wisdom and compassion. Most of our Sunday services are led by our Minister, Rev. Heather Rion Starr. We also offer lay led services featuring members and friends who share their thoughts and life experiences.
Hybrid Sunday Service:
- UUSD is requiring that only vaccinated individuals (who are eligible to be vaccinated against COVID) attend in-person services.
- Please stay home and enjoy our livestream if you have a fever, any other symptoms of illness, or if it’s simply a better option for you.
- Mask wearing is encouraged but not required.
Enjoy our livestream service at uussd.org/livestream, starting at 9:55 a.m.
A Social Hour is held in the Gathering Area after the Sunday service.

February 2025
Sunday, February 2, 10 a.m., “Remaking Our World Now,” Rev. Heather Rion Starr: There are a thousand threads and pressures pulling at our hearts and minds, yet when we take a moment to reflect, we know we must…what? In February, in the midst of an ongoing loneliness epidemic, in the onslaught of this new administration, what are we being called to do, to tend, to remember? (This is the first of a 2-part service series on Loneliness.)
Sunday, February 9, 10 a.m., “Connecting Every Day,” Rev. Heather Rion Starr: Today we will hear more about the Independent Living for Young Adults (ILYA) program and how we can be a part of strengthening the net for young adults aging out of foster care. In tandem, we will be thinking about how we can all take a more active part in strengthening a caring net for all of us. (This is the second of a 2-part service series on Loneliness.)
Sunday, February 16, 10 a.m., “A Window into the Wondrous: For the Birds,” Rev. Heather Rion Starr: Wonder of wonders, there is wisdom right around us, when we have the opportunity to pause and soak it in. Join us today for a celebration of wisdom from the birds!
Sunday, February 23, 10 a.m., “Coming to the Table,” Guest Speaker Jane Carrigan: Coming to the Table is a nationwide organization working to create a just and truthful society that acknowledges and seeks to heal from the racial wounds of the past, from slavery and the many forms of racism it spawned. In recognition of Black History month, Jane Carrigan, co-founder of the Annapolis chapter of Coming to the Table and a member of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Annapolis, will speak to us about her work with this organization.
There will be a post-service opportunity for further conversation with Jane Carrigan about the Coming to the Table program.
