Other questions
Two other questions
that newcomers often have are:
What should I wear to the worship service?
It’s up to you. You will not be given the cold shoulder if you
do not dress in your “Sunday best”. Some members
of our congregation are comfortable coming to services in casual
attire and
others prefer to dress up a little.
Are there people in the congregation who believe what I believe?
If you would like to learn more about the beliefs of those in our
congregation, a good place to start is
About Us. To learn more about Unitarian Universalism in general, visit
the web site of the
Unitarian Universalist Association.
If
you have more questions about our worship services,
feel free to ask the ushers as you enter or leave
the sanctuary, or visit the membership table in
Channing Hall (downstairs from the sanctuary) during
Coffee Hour. We also invite you to
email your questions
to us. |
