Upcoming Worship ServicesJuly 14, 2024 at 10:30AM
Hybrid Service (In-Person and Online) "The Liberating Power of Loving Community" Worship Leader: Pastor Eli Kranz Worship Associate: Carol Guither What if love just isn't enough? What can we do as a community that is BEYOND love, but powered by it? What can we accomplish when our community uses love as a catalyst, not a destination? Elijah Kranz (he/him) is the joint intern Pastor for 1st UU Detroit and Northwest UU in Southfield. He is attending Ecumenical Theological Seminary in pursuit of his Master of Divinity. While a longtime Detroit resident, Elijah has ping-ponged all around the state of Michigan, starting in the Bay City area and then to the West Side for his undergraduate degree. He is passionately involved in the fight for reproductive rights, LGBTQIA+ liberation, and the power of small communities to do big things. He enjoys getting his hands in the action, but also relaxing with his dog, Rocko, at their Detroit home by the River Rouge. July 21, 2024 at 10:30AM Hybrid Service (In-Person and Online) "Pilgrim Days, Pilgrim Ways" Worship Leader: Fred Wooden Worship Associate: Maurya Kay Fred Wooden is a UU minister who served five churches over 40 years, retiring in 2020 from the independent liberal Fountain Street Church in Grand Rapids. Along the way he served First UU in Austin from 1990-1994. In later life he was drawn to the practice of pilgrimage and will consider how it may be the quintessential UU spiritual practice. Nursery is open during Sunday Services from 10:15AM-11:30AM. |

Second Sunday Food Sharing takes place the Second Sunday of each month. Our donations are taken to Crossroads East on Moross, just east of I-94. This location is close to our church home and has a food pantry, clothing closet, provides job assistance, and counseling. We will be collecting non-perishables such as cereal, noodles, rice, canned fruits, veggies, soups, and sauces. If you prefer to donate monetarily, your money is used to buy items such as eggs, milk, meat, produce, and bread. Our donations are greatly appreciated and really help keep the shelves, fridge, and freezer stocked. Please consider putting a couple extra cans or boxes of food in your cart next time you're out shopping. Toiletries, such as deodorant and toothpaste are also helpful. Thank you!
