A Word from Rev Gordon

November 2023 The fall season is upon us. Pumpkins, homecomings, apple pies, football, and all things Americana are on full display. We at Sepulveda Unitarian Universalist Society are bravely stepping forward into this new season with a new way of doing things and a new covenantal relationship never seen, heard of, or experienced before.

House Warming Gift Baskets

NVCS helps many homeless families and car dwellers find housing. Fortunately, this is a highly successful service they provide. However, many who find themselves with a new domicile have little to bring to furnish it. The House Warming Baskets are in response to this need.

Sunday Services Have Been Postponed

In the best interest of our congregants and the public in general, Sunday services and on-site meetings will not take place. This will extend at least through the month of April at which time the situation will be reassessed. Currently we are turning to our larger neighboring and national UU churches on electronic devices at home to enjoy the experience of a Sunday service. Some churches are encouraging viewers to light their own chalice during such service. This is a new and different way of being in community and together we will learn how best to strengthen our bonds and […]
