Services & Events

Services are held each Sunday and begin at 10 a.m. 

​

  • Services cover a wide variety of topics related to the values of the Unitarian Universalist Association. Childcare and religious education is always available for children and youth. Coffee hour follows each service, providing us with an opportunity for fellowship and socialization as we discuss the topic of the day, or other issues on members’ minds. Summer services vary. They are less formal, and include a social aspect, so be sure to review this page to know what is happening each week.

​​

  • Book Discussions: These discussions usually take place September to May, focusing on a non-fiction book dealing with a contemporary social action topic such as climate change, racism, or economic inequities.

April 2025 Services and Events

​​​​​​​​

Sunday, April 6 – Becky Kneer and Bruce Siebold will speak about the road to Menomonie News Net and how it came to be when the physical newspaper for more than a century in Dunn County no longer contained local news. There was a news void, and they got to work.

​

Sunday, April 13 – Service with Dennis Peters, “What Do We Do When It Rains?”

​

What do we do when it rains? Do we rush for cover, swearing under our breath? Do we stand still, look up, feel the rain on our faces, stick out our tongues to taste it?

​

Every event in our lives has multiple sides to it. Today let’s explore the metaphor of the rain. How do we respond to the “rain” in our lives?

​

Thursday, April 17 – Program Committee Meeting, 9 a.m. at Golden Leaf Café.

​

Sunday, April 20 – Our own member, Francis Denning, will present The Revitalization of America, his thoughts about the link between fascism and religion in America and our country’s future.

​

Sunday, April 27 – Service with Dennis Peters, “Meditative Blue”

​

When I was a kid, on our family’s vacation, I would fish for hours, watching the bobber bounce from the little blue gills. Then when I went to bed, I would still see the bobber in my mind, against a deep blue background.

 

Sometimes I see that blue now, when I’m relaxed, eyes closed, breathing slowly. I’m not a meditation expert by any means, but let’s consider that state this morning.

 

Coming Up…

​

Sunday, June 15 – One summer service will be June 15 at 10 a.m. at the Mabel Tainter Theater when we join forces with the Eau Claire UUs to celebrate our shared history and the importance of the Tainter family to our churches.
