Rev. Elizabeth Sollie is a lifelong Unitarian Universalist, raised in Colorado. She holds a B.A. in English Literature along with an elementary teaching credential, and earned her Master of Divinity from Meadville Lombard Theological School. She was ordained in 2018 and received full fellowship in 2023.
Her ministry experience includes serving as interim minister at the UU Fellowship of Bismarck-Mandan in North Dakota (2019–2021), Cascade UU Fellowship in East Wenatchee, Washington (2021–2023), and Starr King UU Church in Hayward, California (2023–2025). She joined Northlake UU Church in August 2025.
She says:
“I want to build a ministry of connection… through connection and covenant, to contribute to what love and life are going to evolve into. Coming alongside people on their life journeys—both emotionally and spiritually—is a deep privilege. People come to church for a sense of community. We need to ensure that sense of belonging is available to everyone who comes through our doors… to be radically inclusive, not just in intent, but in practice as well.”
As we prepare to enter a new year we will let go of all we are done with for this year and look toward a new beginning.
