All cultures have a way to honor their dearly departed ancestors and express gratitude for their lives. Observing an annual tradition at ORUUC, all are invited to bring photographs or small mementos of their deceased loved ones to decorate the altar for this All Souls service. Interim Minister Rev. Lisa Romantum Schwartz will lead us in this deep and healing service.

Join us in person or on Zoom at 10 a.m. for worship. Our November Worship Series is "Living into Gratitude." This week's theme is, "And All the Souls Were Stars."

This Sunday after worship, Rev. Lisa will be leading an End of Life Planning class during Adult Faith Formation Hour (11:15-12:15) in the Social Hall. Lunch will be provided.
