Sunday Mornings
When and where are Sunday Services are held
Services are held each Sunday at 10:00 a.m. in our building at 325 N. 25th Ave. in Bozeman (click here for a map). Our services are also live-streamed on YouTube. After the service, join us for an in-person social time. Click here to view our upcoming services. In the summer, we may hold a few outdoor services at city parks, so check the website.
You can view some of our past sermons, by visiting the Past Services page.
What to expect at Sunday Service
Our services, which are about an hour long, feature readings, music, hymns, and a sermon by our minister or a presentation by a lay member or an outside speaker. There is usually a “Story for All Ages,” for which children are invited to come forward; they go to their Religious Exploration classes after the story. At the beginning of each service, we take a few minutes to wave at the people joining by YouTube and then greet the people near to us. There is also time for visitors—who are comfortable doing so—to introduce themselves.
Later in the service there is a time for people to silently put a stone in water to acknowledge a joy, concern, or sorrow we may be feeling. We close our service by forming a sort of circle and singing a song of community. After the service, there is a coffee hour, to which visitors are cordially invited.
What we believe
Unitarian Universalism is a non-credal religion; we don’t have a strict, explicit set of beliefs. The Principles and Sources that our congregations affirm and promote, along with the religious traditions we draw from, can be seen by clicking here.
UUFB shares our own covenant with each other that we say together at the beginning of every Sunday service; that covenant and our mission and vision statements can be found by clicking here.
Welcoming Children
At UUFB, we believe in nurturing spiritual growth in people of all ages and stages of life, whether they be toddlers, elders, or somewhere in-between. Religious Exploration is exactly what it sounds like: exploring various facets of religious thought and practice through visual, auditory and kinesthetic pathways. For more information about the program or if you have questions, please contact our Coordinator of Religious Exploration.
