Unitarian Universalists of Petaluma

The purpose of this congregation is to provide a haven where members can share in a spiritually, culturally, and socially diverse local religious community. We envision a congregation that will be welcoming to all, that values the contributions of each member in shared ministry, and that actively promotes and models individual development of an ethical way of living. We are intentionally intergenerational, and covenant to provide religious education and spiritual growth for children and adults.

November 4: "A Journey I'd Like to Share"
Guest Speaker: Dick Allen
Worship Associate: Elisabeth Hathaway
"A faithful friend is a sure shelter. Whoever finds one has a rare treasure." Ecclesiasticus
Join UUP Member Dick Allen as he shares significant aspects of his lifetime spiritual journey with us, including the importance of friendship, community, love, and his connections with Buddhism and Arnold Lobel's Frog and Toad are Friends. The Sunday service is the time we explore these themes together, between the greetings on the front porch and the after-service bagels and conversation.
