Experience UU Santa Fe
A Unitarian Universalist Community

Sunday Gatherings

What to expect

At UU Santa Fe, worship is an experience we create together―not in adoration of a god―but rather a celebration of awe, wonder and the sacred. Here are our two weekly services.
  • Sunday 10:30 am MT in-person and online. You may watch live stream gatherings here or recorded services at any time on our YouTube channel. This weekly gathering is mask optional for those who are fully vaccinated. If not, to protect our members, we ask that you wear your masks. If you are participating virtually, please consider signing in to YouTube and sharing in the chat during the services. Most weeks, the virtual community is hosted by our Program Ministry Director, Rev. Kimi Floyd Reisch.
  • You may also watch recorded past services at any time on our YouTube channel.  The most recent Gathering video is linked at the bottom of the page.

This month's Gatherings


Our October worship theme is Heritage.

They Are Still With Us by Kathleen McTigue

Those who lived before us,
who ­struggled for justice and suffered injustice before us,
have not melted into the dust,
and have not disappeared.
They are with us still.
The lives they lived hold us steady.
Their words remind us and call us back to ourselves.
Their courage and love evoke our own.
We, the living, carry them with us:
we are their voices, their hands and their hearts.
We take them with us,
and with them choose the deeper path of living.


Sunday, October 1 | Our Feminist Heritage | Rev. Gail Marriner
We call it "the inherent worth and dignity of every person." Our Unitarian and Transcendentalist ancestors called it "likeness to God." In either case, the idea undergirds much of our social justice work and is at the roots of the larger feminist movement. Join Rev. Gail for a service reflecting on our UU journey toward recognizing the worth of all people and some of the women who were part of the struggle.
Wisdom Story for All Ages: The Little Oak Tree by Barbara Marshman

After the service, "Honoring our Elders" returns with a gathering to honor longtime UU Santa Fe member, past board president, church secretary, and Jill-of-all trades, June Jameson. Everyone is invited to hear more of our history and June's life.

Sunday, October 8 | Saunter Like a Transcendentalist | Rev. Gail Marriner
From Thoreau's essay "Walking" through present day writings of Mary Oliver, Thich Nhat Hahn, Julia Cameron, and Katherine May, thinkers writers and artists have extolled the practice of putting one foot in front of the other in the open air. Join Rev. Gail for an exploration of the creative and spiritual power of this UU practice!
Treehouse Wisdom Story: Henry Hikes to Fitchburg by DB Johnson

Sunday, October 15 | Our Humanist Heritage | Rev. Gail Marriner
​​Many of the early humanist thinkers were Unitarian Universalists. Pulling from the new book Humanly Possible: Seven Hundred Years of Humanist Freethinking, Inquiry, and Hope by Sarah Bakewell, Rev. Gail will lead us through some of the lessons of the book so that we can learn more about these ancestors. Our heretical roots run very deep!
Wisdom Story for All Ages: Declaration of the Rights of Boys and Girls by Elizabeth Brami

Sunday, October 22 | Heritage | Rev. John Cullinan
The Rev. John Cullinan from Los Alamos UU will join us this Sunday as a guest in our pulpit. Los Alamos also works with Soul Matters themes and Rev. John will speak on the October theme of heritage.
Treehouse Wisdom Story:
Be a Tree by Maria Gianferrari

Sunday, October 29 | Living With Intention with Our Natural World | Lay-led by Greg Berg and Lance Tunick
Our fifth Sunday experiment continues with a lay-led service.

November Theme: Heritage
Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won't either, for solitude will also break
you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to
risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left,
or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in
heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could
. - Louise Erdrich

SAVE THE DATE: We will host a Transgender Day of Remembrance service in the front courtyard on November 20.
