Weekly compline service this evening. This Sunday evening at 6:30 p.m. in Cowan Chapel and each Sunday evening, Union Church will host a time of worship for everyone who yearns for a night prayer of quietness at the end of the day and the beginning of the week, a way to still your heart and mind.
In this night prayer of psalm, silence, and song—this compline—we ask God, “Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for unto thee do I lift up my soul.” All are welcome. If you have never chanted the psalms before, you are welcome to come fifteen minutes early to practice with our cantor, so that you might join the singing during worship.
Wednesday Evening Open Table – Supper is at 5:30 (provided—no need to bring anything), other activities and groups too, including Youth Group at 6; ConneXions (for college students & young adults) and Handbell Ensemble rehearsal both at 6:30!

Nov. 1,8, 15 after Supper: Exploring Your Own Sacred Story Indigenous peoples across the globe have handed down their people’s sacred stories through storytelling, song, dance, and visual imagery for generations. Their collective mythology offers a cultural perspective on where they come from, how things came into being, and provides guidelines for living life well. These stories are often referenced or re-told in healing ceremonies to help re-center a person who has lost their way.
