You will have an opportunity to voice your concerns, ideas, and dreams by participating in a congregational forum on May 19th or June 2nd after the service. There will also a workshop for RE Parents on Monday, May 20 at 7:00 pm To help you prepare for these meetings, we encourage you to download and review Making the decision to add an additional worship service, or even considering such a thing, is a major undertaking in congregational life. As institutions (and even as members of institutions), we don’t always embrace even the smallest changes easily, and alterations in our worship styles and patterns are not small changes. Rather, they are often some of the largest changes that congregations choose to undertake. Yet many positive reasons for adding worship opportunities exist: Adding services can provide a wonderful, invigorating climate for growth of all sorts, both individual and institutional. But large-scale change without adequate planning not only may doom the change but also may create additional problems. Therefore, planning well for this change, as for any other major change, is necessary to ensure that the process will be effective. This document is presented as a resource for your congregation as you consider whether to add an additional worship service. It compiles knowledge from several sources—the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), our member congregations, and other religious movements that have considered and implemented such changes. We hope that you find this manual useful, and we encourage you to be in touch with the New Congregation and Growth Resources office if you have other questions, concerns, or suggestions for future revisions of this document.

Renowned UU folk musician Peter Mayer (‘Blue Boat Home’) “writes songs for a small planet—songs about interconnectedness and the human journey; about the beauty and the mystery of the world. Whimsical, humorous, and profound, his music breaks the boundaries of “folk”, and transcends to a realm beyond the everyday love song, to a place of wonder at the very fact of life itself.”UUFSD’s Stand for Gun Control
