Unitarian Universalist services are similar to most other churches. There are readings and hymns, often live instrumental or choral music. There is a time for people to share significant events in their lives. There is usually a story for children early in the service, before they leave the sanctuary for their classes downstairs. You are welcome to visit and to explore with us. Wear whatever you feel comfortable wearing!
Unless otherwise noted all services and children's religious education programs occur on Sunday at 10:30 AM and last approximately 75 minutes. Child care is available.
We invite you to remain after the service for coffee and conversation.
Starting Sunday October 8 through the end of November we’re going to try something new at Northlake. Join us at 10:20 for “Morning Songs,” 10 minutes of singing prior to the “regular” service. Songs will singable by adults and kids — some old favorites you know some new ones, led and taught by members of the congregation.

“Liberation and Love” In 1989 Georgie won an Oprah Winfrey essay contest for writing about her husband’s life and experience as a liberator at Bergen-Belsen Concentration Camp. It was then that they both decided to begin work on a book based on letters that they wrote back and forth during WWII. They met less than two months before he went to serve with the American Field Service Ambulance Corps in India, Burma, Italy, Paris on VE Day and finally in Germany. |

Ending Homelessness Is it possible to put an end to homelessness? Michael Ramos from the Church Council of Greater Seattle will share the faith imperatives of King County’s Ten Year Plan to End Homelessness, and what some of the other houses of worship are doing for their contributions. The Northlake community will then carry the conversation downstairs for discussion on our part in helping to end homelessness in King County, lunch included. Please note that the Nov 4th and Nov 19th talks will not be the same. |
26 November Rev. Amanda Aikman |
Were the Founding Fathers Christian? Well, were they or weren’t they? Mostly, no — at least, not in the way we usually define “Christian.” Meet some of the Founding Fathers and see what they have to say for themselves. The Northlake Drama Team will be featured. |
