Worship Committee

The mission of the Worship Committee is to provide thoughtful, challenging and inspirational worship services that reflect congregational needs and demonstrate the liberal and diverse theological values of Unitarian Universalism and this congregation.  We assess the worship needs of all ages in the congregation and collaborate with the Minister in the development of meaningful worship experiences.

When we meet in person or online, Sunday morning service begins at 10:30 a.m., with time afterward for conversation.  A typical service includes a chalice lighting, sharing of joys and concerns, readings, hymns, an offering to support our Charity of the Quarter, and a sermon by our minister, a lay member of our congregation, or a guest speaker. UUCSV is committed to lay preaching as well as services led by our minister. We feel we are enriched by the diversity of messages this provides and by the opportunity to get to know the members of our community better through their participation in the services. Check the UUCSV calendar for our worship schedule.

An important part of our services at UUCSV is reading – poetry, “UU Moments,” essays, and letters. If you love to read and are willing to take a text and read it to the congregation during services, please let us know. We look forward to hearing your voice! We also welcome new members to our committee, so please come join us!
