UUCGV Worship Services

Unitarian Universalist worship services are similar to most Protestant and Catholic services, with some important differences.  We follow a typical order of service, with readings, music, community sharing, hymns, and a sermon.  Because of our theology, however, the content of the service is different from what you would experience in a Protestant or Catholic church, a Jewish Synagogue, a Buddhist temple, or other religious groups.

We study all the worlds religions, and are also influenced by humanism and earth-centered religious teachings.  Thus you will find a broad mix of religious traditions and teachings in our services.

Our minister delivers the message usually two times a month in Grand Junction, with guest speakers or lay led services for the balance of the time.

The Black Canyon Gathering services feature lay leaders and discussions.

We place a high value on music, so you will hear music of all types, especially classical music, being performed.  Unitarian Universalists have their own hymnal, with traditional and modern songs, many with uniquely UU wording and arrangements.

See the UU Beliefs for more information on Unitarian Universalist beliefs.

See the Flaming Chalice for an explanation of the symbolism.
