We gather together in spiritual community because we need constant reminders of what matters most in life. In a world of heartbreak and dehumanization, our congregations and communities call us to our better selves. We learn to live with more wisdom, more connection, and more compassion.

Our Worship Services are weekly reflections that weave together diverse theologies, direct experience, eclectic music, poetry, prayer, and prophetic words that both comfort and challenge.

Sunday Services begin at 10:30 AM and are approximately 90 minutes.

Elements of a typical UU Marin Sunday morning worship service include:

• Words of welcome
• Lighting a flaming chalice, the symbol of our faith
• A multigenerational segment, such as a “story for all ages”
• Music, both instrumental and vocal and in a variety of styles
• A time for lifting up the joys and concerns of the congregation
• A meditation or prayer
• Readings—ancient or contemporary
• A sermon given by our minister, a guest speaker, or a member of the congregation
• An offering, collecting financial donations for the congregation or for justice work in the community.

From time to time, worship incorporates holiday celebrations, multigenerational plays and pageants, longer musical performances, new member welcomes, child dedications, and coming-of-age ceremonies. We offer childcare and religious education programs for children and youth during the Sunday service.
