Worship Services at Unity Church

Our building is currently closed in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Multigenerational Sunday services are being live-streamed from the Sanctuary at 10:00 a.m. Please join us. Services are being recorded and may be viewed at your convenience following the live stream.  CLICK HERE for past services.

After the service, whether this is your first time with us or you've been here all your life, you’re invited to participate in a virtual Zoom coffee hour, where we share a bit of our lives with each other and get to know one another more deeply. Stay for a few minutes or stay up to 45 minutes to connect in smaller break-out rooms. Unity Church staff and volunteers lead the sessions, and will suggest questions both light-hearted and deep for discussion. Please CLICK HERE to participate in the Zoom coffee hour.

If you would like to participate in Finding Yourself at Unity, a weekly way for newcomers to connect and learn about Unity Church and Unitarian Universalism, please CLICK HERE for details.

Each Sunday, through the work of the Generosity Ministry Team, seventy percent of the offering is placed in the hands of the chosen community non-profit recipient. The remaining thirty percent goes to support of the Community Outreach Ministry at Unity Church. Offering recipients for each Sunday are listed below the Sunday service description. CLICK HERE to make a donation. If you would like to nominate a non-profit to receive the Sunday offering, please fill out the online nomination form.

April Sunday Worship

April 4: Practice Resurrection: The Road to Emmaus 
Livestream: https://youtu.be/8ZYNNrjB-vM
Traditionally, Christians in Unitarian Universalism follow Jesus and his teachings rather than find atonement through his resurrection. Revs. Janne and Rob Eller-Isaacs and KP Hong will explore the work of the disciples left behind in the wake of Jesus’s shocking death. Their shock turned to a different understanding as they came to see that he was still among them. As Easter returns, the question once again turns to how we awaken to the holy around us and how we allow it to inspire us to acts of new life. Offering recipient: Mano a Mano

April 11: The Radical Equality of Lives
Livestream: https://youtu.be/oEM0ZnV3egY
Philosopher Judith Butler distills compassion down to its essence when she uses the term, “the radical equality of lives.” When and how will we learn how dangerous and truly tragic it can be when we fall into thinking some people’s lives are more valuable than the lives of others? Rev. Rob Eller-Isaacs and worship associate Shelley Butler will wrestle with the existential questions that rise out of such seductive assumptions. Offering recipient: Minnesota Tool Library (MTL)

April 18: Compassion’s Call
Livestream: https://youtu.be/5YymofNA14o​
For many of us, the last person for whom we easily feel compassion toward is ourselves. Rev. Janne Eller-Isaacs and worship associate Jake Rueter will engage with the implications of a world where self-compassion is a goal. Offering recipient: Women's Advocates

April 25: Beloved on the Earth
Livestream: https://youtu.be/rE-LmBC6QOQ
“And did you get what you wanted from this life?” asks Raymond Carver in his last published poem, “Late Fragments.” On this Coming of Age Sunday, come listen closely as we share a collage drawn from the words of the ones we call the Agers. This year Rev. Rob Eller-Isaacs will preach and Drew Danielson and Rev. KP Hong will share in the offering of this long cherished tradition. Offering recipient: Border CrosSing
