Join us for RevKev’s report back from his recent Pilgrimage to the Unitarian Church of Transylvania the birthplace of Unitarianism. Theologian Francis David led efforts to enact the Edict of Torda in 1568 which established Unitarianism and allowed congregants to freely elect their ministers and represented one of the first expressions of religious freedom in Christian Europe. How can a better understanding of our Unitarian legacy guide us towards international partnerships rooted in our values of Justice, Pluralism, and Interdependence? Led by Revs. Kevin Mann, Laurel Liefert, and RE Director Jef Melcher. Music led by Evelie Delfino Såles Posch.

There are two ways to attend this worship service:

• In person: Worship service starts at 10:20 AM. We strongly recommend that you wear a mask while in the building. All are invited to stay after worship for Coffee Hour in Wendte Hall.

• Via Zoom: Click here to join us online for the service and Virtual Coffee Hour. Closed captions will be provided. The first part consists of watching the live stream, and the second part continues our practice of online Coffee Hour. The virtual “doors” open at 10 AM and music commences at 10:20 AM.

Checking out First Unitarian Oakland?

If you’re joining us for the first time, we would like to extend a full welcome!  Please answer a few questions on our online Newcomer Connection Card.  When at church on Sunday, you can also ask questions and get help at the Greeting Table on the patio before the service.

On most Sundays right after the service, we have a quick Newcomer Welcome in the sanctuary — meet up with a church member in front by the pulpit, for a quick introduction to the church and answers to your questions — then join us in Wendte Hall for Coffee Hour.  If you attend via Zoom, you can stay in the Zoom session after the service for informal discussion in our Virtual Coffee Hour.

We look forward to you joining us for worship service each week! For more information, check out About Worship.
