Stay In Touch With Us!


This Sunday at UCCSV - 1/12/25

It’s a new year and we’re looking towards the story of the Magi to help us learn discernment and teach us how to move forward in a time of struggle and upheaval. This morning we’ll consider how to decide on a course of action and discern how to move forward. What star will lead us? What are some other signs and wonders we can see around us? How do we even begin to follow the call on our lives? Let us consider these questions as we enter into worship together. Join us at 10am in person or online on Zoom. 

The bulletin for this service can be found HERE. 


Follow That Star: Learning Discernment from the Magi

Have you ever struggled to make a decision? Stood looking at two paths before you not sure which one to take? Do you sometimes wish God would send a burning bush or a star in the sky to make the path forward clear? In January we're going to look at what happened when God did send a clear sign in the form of a star and learn from the Magi how to practice the fine art of discernment, how to follow a call, and what it means to go on a faith journey. Join us!
