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.

Sunday, May 18, 10 a.m., “A Celebration of Unique Beauty, Transition, and Community: Volunteer Appreciation Sunday and Flower Ceremony,” Rev. Heather Rion Starr: Just on a single day, in a single week, there are so many individuals involved in co-creating a thriving community. Join us in celebrating the 102nd year of the Flower Ceremony (which originated in Prague in 1923) and all the ways we are each a part of a greater whole when we bring our full selves forward into the mix. 

Bring a flower or small bouquet to contribute to the common table.

Sunday, May 25, 10 a.m., “The Ordination of Leika Lewis,” In Unitarian Universalist congregational polity (how we are organized, as a denomination and set of faith communities), only congregations can ordain people into the ministry. Having completed all the requirements of our denominational Ministerial Fellowship Committee to enter into preliminary fellowship, Unitarian Universalist Leika Lewis is now ready to be ordained, and UUSD has the honor of performing this once-in-a-lifetime Act of Ordination for and with Leika! Come witness and be a part of this very special day with us!
