Nov. 29, 2020 Virtual Worship Service – “What’s in Your Go-Bag?”
This extraordinary year has brought with it soaring demand for things like sourdough yeast, chest freezers, toilet paper, and canning supplies. In our online worship service on Nov. 29, 2020, our guest preacher, the Rev. Sally Fritsche, reflected on the ways we prepare for disasters, and what those preparations might reveal about us. She considered the meaning of an apocalypse, and urged us to recommit to a preparedness grounded in community care and UU values.
Rev. Sally is a lifelong Unitarian Universalist who grew up right here in our Columbia, Mo. congregation. She graduated from Harvard Divinity School in 2018 and was ordained into UU ministry in June 2020. She is currently serving as the Associate Minister for Congregational Life at the UU Church of Urbana-Champaign in Illinois.

Sunday Morning Tea Party (all ages, but targeted at pre-K to K)

Sunday, Dec. 6 – “Delight Close In” – Rev. Molly Housh Gordon
