"What Happends When We Let The Mystery In?" Pastor Eli Kranz, Intern Minister at 1st UU Tom Ott, Worship Leader Who doesn't love a good mystery? Clues and intrepid detectives sussing out the culprit. Cozy mysteries tend to be organized, methodical, and predictable. When it comes to real life however, mystery is a bit messier. Pastor Eli will explore the mystery of life through the lens of Hercule Poirot, and his own struggles with the unknown, unpredicted, and unpredictable.Dial In: 646-558-8656 Meeting ID: 880 4044 0406 Passcode: nwuu After the Service

Joint Worship Service at NWUU The Grinch and UUville Eva Leventer, Director of Religious Education Todd Ballou, Music Director at 1st UU Jim Moir, Worship Leader In a land far out East, not far from all yous. Lay the small town of UUville, the home of the UUs. Ask many UUs, and they’ll have this to say: There is no place like UUville around Christmas Day. Come see our youth perform the pageant, "The Grinch and UUville", an UU adaption inspired from the screenplay “How The Grinch Stole Christmas” by Jeffrey Price and Peter S. Seaman. Sunday, December 17 @ 6:00 pm Candlelight Service at NWUU Diana Kohler, Worship Leader In the words of the Rev. Jo VonRue, "Traditionally, Advent is a time of searching for light in the dark. The Pagan tradition of Yule is a celebration of the return of the sun. But Darkness is as important as light, the cold dark of winter is as important to life as the bright warmth of summer." Come join us for our annual Candelight Service. We'll celebrate the winter holidays Hanukkah, Solstice. Christmas, and Kwanzaa. Bring a dessert to share after the service!
