Rick Spradlin is our lay leader and a lifelong student of comparative religion, philosophy and ethics. 

Our Sunday services begin at 10:45 a.m., but join us for coffee, refreshments and conversation at 10:15 a.m.

Services typically are centered on a talk—either by a member of our Fellowship like Rick or by a guest speaker. Services also include music, meditation and opportunities (always optional) to add your own thoughts. Unitarian Universalists (UUs) don’t share a creed. Rather, we support each other in our own free and responsible searches for truth and meaning. For us, dogma is less important than treating our fellow human beings with respect. And visitors are always welcome.

Here’s the rest of the Sunday schedule.

• 9:15 a.m. to noon. Free childcare available.
• 9:15 a.m. Adult Religious Education. This week’s topic: Charles Dickens.
• 9:15 a.m. Children’s religious education. Kids also learn about the world’s great religions and about respecting each other and the planet This week they’ll explore the relationship between love and acceptance.
• 10:15 a.m. Coffee and conversation before the service.
• 10:45 a.m. The Sunday service.

A reminder:

Judy Barnett has placed a box in the Great Hall to collect coats for men being released from the Stewart Detention Center in Lumpkin, Ga. (Detainees sometimes are released without proper winter clothing.)
