EMERSON UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST CHURCH

You are always welcome at Emerson Unitarian Universalist Church. We embrace many beliefs, welcome all genders and sexual orientations, and are increasingly accessible to people of all abilities.

• Joining us for worship? Learn about what to expect in our thought-provoking and soulful worship services.  You may join us either in-person or via Zoom (live.emersonuuc.org). In order to be more accessible to our members who are immune-compromised we have continued to request masking during our worship services.  Please see the current Worship Service information about joining us in-person, as protocol may vary.
• Our in-person programs for children and youth paused during the pandemic and have not yet fully resumed, although we do have free child care during our services and would like to resume our programs when more children return. To learn more about Emerson’s pre-pandemic religious education programs, see our Religious Education page under the Community menu.
• Wanting to find community? Discover our many in-person and online groups under this website’s Community Activities and Groups menu.

As you explore our website and learn about our location, feel free to contact us with your questions. We look forward to meeting you and helping you find what you need.

With faith, hope, and love,   Emerson Unitarian Universalist Church

CORONA PANDEMIC AND ZOOM

During our extended pandemic pause we learned to use Zoom as a way to meet virtually not just for worship, but for many of the small groups, committee meetings, and even for creative new ways to be together, like Emerson’s Coffee Hour after every Sunday’s Zoom morning worship service.  Staying on zoom after church and joining our coffee hour chats is a good way to get to know some of us.  As we gradually move into in-person services, we are continuing with a multi-platform (a/k/a hybrid) service so you have the option to join us in-person or via Zoom.  Please see the current Worship Service information about joining us on a specific Sunday, as protocol for in-person services may vary.

You can join us for Sunday morning worship via Zoom
by selecting this link: live.emersonuuc.org;
by going to the Zoom Meeting ID: 858 109 2800 Password: chalice;
or Via Phone: (669) 900-6833, Enter the Meeting ID: 858 109 2800

A few notes on the zoom worship service:

• Everyone is invited to light their own chalice, so you might want to have one ready.
• If you have a joy or sorrow that you would like to have shared aloud during the worship service,
  
  • you can write it in our Virtual “Book of Life”: https://forms.gle/ dG1utcEyg4GCSP8N6.
  • There will also be an opportunity for people on Zoom to write something in the chat.
• Reminder : You are entering a sacred space when you join on Zoom. If you are eating, moving around, involved in personal hygiene, please turn off your video as it can be distracting to other participants.

OPTIONAL CHILDCARE

When we worship in-person, optional childcare for infants and toddlers will be offered for Sunday services, starting at 10:15 a.m. You may bring your child to the nursery (classroom 2, next to the playground). (Lucy Graham has been our child care provider for years and kids enjoy spending time with her).  We recommend arriving by 10:15 at first, so that your child can get accustomed to the setting. Children are also welcome to stay with their parents. Our foyer is connected to the sanctuary by large windows, wired into our sound system, and furnished with chairs and toys, so that parents do not have to miss any of the service if their children get restless during the quiet times in our service.
