Upcoming Worship Services - Unitarian Universalist Congregation in Milford

The Schedule for 2024 UUCM Summer Services

This summer, Sunday services will be both familiar and a little different. They will offer opportunities for connection and spiritual renewal, be varied in format or ways to participate, and they will, as always, welcome newcomers.

The Weekly Update will provide the time and location or format for each week.

Here’s the schedule:

September 1 – A video Labor Day service that you can watch anytime over the following week. All the work we do is important no matter how we get paid for it. UUCM is one of the beneficiaries of our longing to make a difference. This will be a short, upbeat video to prepare us for the beginning of a new church year.
Click here to view the service. It will become available on Sept 1, 2024, at 7:00am.
September 8 at 10:30am in the Sanctuary An Invitation to Wonder with Nancy Baker and members of the Worship Team who are not at Ferry Beach. It’s that time of starting over – school begins, the election heats up, and we embrace the possibilities of a new church year. We get tense and focus on details when maybe we just need to embrace the wonder of it all. This service is about the potential of wonder to open us up to the essential goodness of what lasts, no matter how we mess it up.

Below are descriptions of our upcoming regular services. If you see none, that simply means that the descriptions are not yet available.

The Evolved Nest (In Person and Online)

Sun, May 11, 2025 10:30am

Nancy Baker and The Worship Team

Humans share with other species a capacity for feelings, thoughts, and dreams. Our confidence and compassion develop in an evolved nest that is not so different from the “nests” that elephants, penguins, and whales use to nurture their young. It’s how social needs and values are passed along. This service explores the power of the family unit as it is supported by a larger, caring communal unit. Beloved community is an evolved nest of collaboration, empathy, and purpose that makes life meaningful for all of us, no matter what our age or circumstances.

The theme for the month of May is The Practice of Imagination.

Windows and Mirrors (In Person and Online)

Sun, May 18, 2025 10:30am

Heather Janules, UUA Field Staff and The Worship Team

It is often said that the only constant is change. When we rebuild after a time of transition, what do we need for security and what do we need for learning? Drawing on memories of sacred places and adventures with moving trucks, in this month centered on Imagination, this service will reflect on imagining a community that lives fully into inclusion and the people within who make that happen.

Creativity: Do You See? (In Person and Online)

Sun, May 25, 2025 10:30am

John Mika and The Worship Team

To create is to bring something into existence that wasn’t there before. Is creativity due to one’s innate abilities — or is it a process that can be nurtured? Volumes have been written about the creative process. A short reflection on the subject cannot do it justice, but a few musings about the subject can’t do us any harm, and may produce a spark of awareness that just might help us realize that the spark lies within.
