Our worship service is at 10 am and is usually about one hour long.

Our liturgy is informal to some people and formal to others, depending on your perspective.  We sing from a variety of sources:  a hymnal, printed inserts, and a brand new book published by the UCC with more contemporary music.  

We invite prayers of the people, an opportunity to name aloud your joys and concerns.  We also provide a table with candles in the back of the sanctuary for people who would rather light a candle than speak aloud.

We use Inclusive Language – which means our music and prayers use many images and names for God.  Instead of saying “Our Father” for the Lord’s Prayer, we use a variety of names, such as Divine Parent, Spirit of Life, Source of Healing and many more.
Sermons engage the biblical text seriously, meant to stimulate thought and action.  They seek to be relevant both to personal issues we may be facing as well as address contemporary issues of justice and peace.  Our pastor preaches most Sundays, but at other times, worship may be led by one of the several ministers or theological students who are members of our church.  Each year our pastor and rabbi from Temple Micah engage in a dialogue sermon.  Or, we may present a service centered on a dialogue among some of our members on a relevant topic or other kind of creative presentation, such as during Women’s History Month or Social Justice Sunday in July.

Twice a year we worship in a different way.  We have an annual all-church weekend retreat at our church camp – LaForet near Colorado Springs – in August and do not hold services at the church.  And one Sunday each summer we have a “Jesus Has Left the Building: And We Followed” Sunday.  That day we engage in worshipful service in the community – offering a meal to homeless families, marching in the GLBT Pride Parade, or leading a service in a local nursing home.
