Inclement and Severe Weather Policy

It is our intention that Sunday services always be held as scheduled. Unless specific information to the contrary is posted on the congregation's homepage, please assume that you will be warmly welcomed each Sunday morning. We urge you to exercise caution and to put safety first in determining whether to travel to UUAA.

For other days of the week, where current or anticipated extreme weather conditions will make travel to and from our facilities unsafe, the building may be closed and all scheduled activities cancelled or postponed. The decision to close the facilities will be made by the Senior Minister or his/her designee, and a notice of the closure posted on the homepage of the congregation's website. The on-duty Building Attendant will call lay leaders of recognized congregational groups and rental contacts to inform them of any building closing.

Office Volunteers Needed

Help is needed in the Church office on Monday and Tuesday afternoons through April. No experience is required; just a welcoming smile. Questions? Contact Debby Casamatta at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

UUJME Film * February 8

Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land will be shown at 1:00pm in the Fahs Chapel, followed by a discussion. Israeli military occupation and settlement expansion in the Palestinian territories is the primary cause of conflict in the region. Yet, U.S. media coverage is less critical of Israel and the occupation than international news sources. This documentary examines bias in U.S. media coverage and its impact on public opinion.
