Tickets
May 10 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

Sunday, May 10, 10 a.m., “Using Your Superpowers,” Allyson Rice: Yes, we all have very real superpowers. So how, exactly, do we use them as we navigate through the challenges we’re experiencing in the world every day? And what the heck does this have to do with Mother’s Day?

Allyson Rice is a producer and part-owner of Atomic Focus Entertainment; the author and narrator of the novel, “The Key to Circus-Mom Highway;” and was a former actress on stage and television for many years. Between the acting years and producing years, she led personal and spiritual growth retreats around the country for a decade with her company, The Total Human. She first came to Unitarianism in NYC in the 90’s through her ex-husband after the birth of their son. She first came to UUSD when her book ban film, “Banned Together,” was screened here, and she did a Q&A after the film. That’s when Rev. Heather asked her to speak at a UUSD service.

Please feel free to stay home and enjoy our livestream if you have a fever, any other symptoms of illness, or if it’s simply a better option for you.

Memorial Day Classical Concert

This Memorial Day weekend marks one year since our beloved Beryl Martin passed away. Her daughter, Andreia Torain, and her string ensemble, Philalea, are scheduled to perform at UUSD on May 24 at 3 p.m. The concert is scheduled to be classical (Brahams, Debussy, and possibly one Scott Joplin piece as requested by Norman).

The group is a trio of classically trained musicians who will be performing on piano, cello, and violin. (Andreia is a violinist.) She sees the concert as a gift to UUSD in honor of her mother. It is free and open to the public so invite your friends and neighbors.

New Dates: More Time for Donations!

The time has arrived to come up with creative ways to make donations for our 2026 Auction. In the past, we have had donations of dinners in people’s homes, gift cards, artwork, furniture, vacation getaways, baked goods, services (babysitting, pet sitting, cleaning, handy person, massages, photography), baskets made up of donations from businesses and restaurants, family events, and the list goes on!

After Sunday services through May 10, a team member will be in the foyer with donation forms. Please complete a form and drop it off, or complete and submit a form on the website. There are also forms for businesses who wish to verify their donations.

Sharing Our Stories

Each of us at UUSD has a different story to tell about how we found a spiritual home here. A few of us are life-long UUs but most are not, having come from a variety of other religious backgrounds or from no particular place of faith. Whatever our journey, sharing the stories of the paths we took helps connect us to each other and to the shared journey we are now making.
