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 often a story for children early in the service, before they leave the sanctuary for childcare downstairs. You are welcome to visit and to explore with us. Wear whatever makes you comfortable!

Teachers Then and Now This Sunday we recognize our teachers and the loving contributions they make to our church community. We will also step back in history to celebrate Francis David on his birthday. David was the founder of the Unitarian Church of Transylvania and was known — and tried — for his innovative teaching. |

Indiana Jones Meets The Da Vinci Code in the Synogague The Cairo Genizah: The Story of the Largest Heap of Medieval Letters, Receipts, Recipes, Schoolbooks, Bibles, Torah Scrolls, Poems, Prescriptions, Doodles and other Old Scraps Ever Discovered In January, 1897, in a dusty attic above the Ben Ezra Synagogue in Cairo, Egypt, Rabbi Solomon Schechter of Cambridge University discovered the largest collection of medieval manuscripts ever found in a single place. It was the synagogue’s “genizah” — its repository for unusable sacred texts, and it held over a quarter–million damaged and destroyed Jewish documents, some dating back over 1,000 years. Rabbi Glickman’s talk will tell the story of this astounding discovery — how Rabbi Schechter found it, how its texts were collected, and some of the amazing stories of the treasures it held. |

Anticipation… As we enter into the season of Advent, we have a sense of anticipation. But what are we anticipating? It has to be more than parties and gift-wrapping. |
