Our Committees
The vitality of our church relies on the sustained and coordinated effort of many dedicated hands. When you are so moved, our community will gratefully receive your contribution of time and talent. Below are many opportunities in which you may participate and add value to our community. Find a place for yourself!
Worship
The purpose of the Worship Committee is to promote excellence in our worship services, to assist in planning and carrying out worship services, and to provide a conduit for input and feedback about worship from all members of the church community. The Committee is mindful that a liberal religious community such as ours holds diverse opinions on worship and, therefore, provides ample opportunity for input and feedback from the congregation regarding worship.

Religious Education | Children & Youth
For complete information on this vital team, go to our Faith Development page.

The purpose of the Religious Education Program (Faith Development) is to prepare our children to live spiritually, responsibly, compassionately and intentionally in a complex world.  Our efforts are driven by the vision of “growing the soul” and helping children and youth to become excited about and come to cherish spiritual life while we guide and support children and families on their journey as lifelong Unitarian Universalists.  We oversee the work of our professional and volunteer staff, and help manage our programs and classroom environments to achieve the best possible outcomes.

The annual UUCY Auction is the church's largest fundraiser and an eagerly anticipated, fun event for the whole family. Usually held in November, the auction typically includes dinner, entertainment, a live auction, children's activities, raffle, and other events. Auction items range from vacation homes to jewelry making, dinners and hikes to sermon bids, handcrafted items to home services, and much more. Volunteers are always needed to plan, organize, and run the auction - whether working or just attending, UUCY families and friends enjoy the food, entertainment, and fellowship.  Email auction@uucy.org to get involved!
