Services
Sunday morning services start at 10:30am 5575 West Saanich Rd. Join us for spiritual reflection and inspiration that helps us navigate the challenges of daily life. You can join us on Zoom or Facebook Live. You can also watch past services.
Dress
Some people are from a background in which they feel they should “dress up” for worship. Others believe it most important to “come as they are”. Please dress however you are comfortable. What’s most important is that you feel at home.
Parking
We have lots of free on site parking available, including several accessible spaces for those with mobility concerns. There is plenty of space for you!
Beliefs
We are Unitarian Universalists. As a Welcoming Congregation, we celebrate our diversity! With no set creed that members must believe, we share a set of values and support one another on our spiritual journeys. We draw from many sources of inspiration including all of the world’s great religious traditions, poetry, podcasts, music, and contemporary writings. We are united in our efforts to live as the best versions of ourselves and to do all we can to make the world a more just, sustainable, and compassionate place for all. Our shared values are best expressed in our 8 Principles.
Families
We welcome families! Being in multigenerational faith community is valued. We offer families choice and encourage them to do what works in the moment. Children are welcome in our Sanctuary. We invite families to join the service for the first few minutes every Sunday for a story and song. Kids then have the option of activities led in a separate space (kid’s grownups welcome for moral support and optional). The Lion Lounge is an informal space for watching the service on a screen in a room adjacent to the sanctuary if anyone needs to wiggle or chatter and a family want to stay together throughout worship.
Greeters
You will be greeted in the entryway where you can get a nametag (if you want one) and ask any questions. Our greeters are always happy to help you find your way and warmly welcome you to the space. We encourage newcomers (that have not already done so) to complete a newcomer welcome form.
Hospitality
After the service, join us for coffee, tea, and goodies. It’s a great place to meet and chat and get to know some members of the congregation. Outdoor space available as weather allows and seasonal produce.
Accessibility
With no pews and wide aisles, moveable chairs allow mobility aids anywhere from the front to the back of the sanctuary you choose. All main entrances are stair and ledge free. Change tables available.
