We are welcoming, open and affirming to all. Our services begin at 10:30 a.m. Sundays. Religious exploration for school-age children and childcare for preschoolers are available from September to May. Learn more about us and what happens Sundays at UUFF.
Our growing Unitarian Universalist fellowship is led by Rev. Leslie Ahuvah Fails, who joined UUFF in September 2015. About half our Sunday Services are lay led or feature guest speakers, ensuring a diversity of topics and voices.

Dr. Who fans are familiar with the sonic screwdriver: a seemingly ordinary, every day tool supercharged with vast powers to disarm enemies and to defend and protect the Doctor and his friends. Curiosity is a similarly multipurpose tool with superpowers we do not completely understand. It has the power to disarm fear and anxiety, to engage Daleks (or at least those we disagree with) in difficult conversations, to unlock our own creativity, and to take us into new worlds of knowledge and adventure. We’ll explore how curiosity expands our universe by giving us a tool to quell our demons and opening us up to our inner selves and the world around us.

The diligent political organizing of the religious right over the last few decades is producing results – the U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision eviscerating reproductive rights is just one example. As this ultra-conservative movement gains power and, increasingly, the ability to impose its strict moral vision on others, how should those who hold a different moral vision – one grounded in love and inclusion – respond? This message will draw on Katherine Stewart’s book The Power Worshippers: Inside the Dangerous Rise of Religious Nationalism, which will be the focus of an upcoming book discussion at UUFF.

Inspired by St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment, Unitarian Universalists gather once a year to celebrate the creatures who accompany us through life. Whether they walk, swim, hop, crawl, scamper, or fly, your animal friends are welcome to join us in “paw-son” for a special service of blessing (as long as they play well with others). You can also bring a photograph of your animal friend, or of beloved pets who have passed on. This service will honor them all.
Our Service is both In-Person and Online, to join online use the following links:

“The will to forgive is not enough…only true understanding can bring about forgiveness. And this kind of understanding is possible only when you see the suffering (of others)” – Thich Nhat Hanh
Forgiveness can be heavy spiritual work. What can be done when it is difficult or impossible to forgive? What happens within us when we make peace with how we have been wronged and how we have wronged others? And how will we ever forgive ourselves”
