Mid-Columbia Unitarian

Universalist Fellowship

Commonly Asked Questions about our Fellowship

Do you have a minister?

We're a lay-led fellowship. Our Sunday Services are led by fellowship members, visiting ministers and guest speakers.

What do you for your Sunday services?

Our Sunday services include readings, music, singing and time for people to share their joys and concerns with the congregation. Our main speaker for the day may be a member speaking from his or her own words, or a sermon published by another. We welcome an ordained Unitarian Universalist minister once a month and often invite ministers and others from the community to speak.

What do children do at Sunday services?

Everyone attends the first part of the service together. The children participate in several songs, lighting of candles for joys and concerns, and a children's time of song, story, or discussion. The children then leave with their teachers for religious education (age 5 and up) or childcare activities.

If my child doesn't separate well, can she or he stay with me in the service?

Yes, as long as the child is not noisy or otherwise disruptive.

What should we wear?

We are an informal group. Wear what is comfortable for you.
