Upcoming Services and Events

March 17th, 10 am, “Luck and the Hedonic Treadmill”, roundtable with Maya Gilmore. “From Greek to Irish, a great majority of the European words for ‘happy’ at first meant ‘lucky.’ An exception is Welsh, where the word used first meant ‘wise.'” — etymonline.com. Maya Gilmore will use a web of etymology to stage the question: is luck (and happiness) all a matter of perception, or are some people really luckier than others?

Services begin at 10 am in person at the Fellowship building and on Zoom unless otherwise stated. Masks are recommended for those attending services in the Fellowship building. To join our service online, please use this link: https://zoom.us/j/2907005294
Welcome

Welcome

The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Laramie welcomes you!

Whatever faith traditions you have known, and whatever your family heritage may be, whoever you are and whomever you love, however you make a living and whatever your personal circumstances, whatever your abilities or limitations, and wherever you are on your spiritual path, you are welcome here.

Founded in 1955, our congregation’s members represent a wide range of spiritual beliefs, cultural backgrounds, and sexual orientations. We are bound together not by creed, but by covenant in which we pledge to support one another in our individual spiritual journeys and to work together as a community for a more peaceful and just world.

Who We Are

Who We Are

Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion, grounded in adherence to seven principles that include the worth of each person, the need for justice and compassion, and the right to choose one’s own beliefs. Rather than relying on a single religious text, we draw wisdom and inspiration from a range of religious traditions, as well as earth-centered spirituality and our own direct experience of the world.
Members of a UU congregation are bound together not by creed, but by covenant -- that is, a promise to love, respect, and support one another in our individual spiritual journeys.

Worship

Worship

Our services are held at 10 a.m. on Sundays and typically begin by lighting the flaming chalice, the symbol of our faith. The services include music and song; poetry, stories, and other readings; an opportunity to share our joys and concerns with one another; and a sermon by the minister or a presentation by a guest speaker or members of the congregation. All ages are welcome in our services.

The services usually last about an hour, followed by coffee and conversation. At present, our services are offered both in person and online.
