Live the Questions Now

Michael DeSantis

Join us on March 11th at 10:30 am. A popular quip among Unitarian Universalists goes like this, “We encourage our members to ask big questions… sometimes, we even try to answer them!” This Sunday, we will indeed try to answer some of those big questions as we revive an old First Unitarian tradition: Question Box Sunday! Join us as our Ministerial Resident, Michael DeSantis, offers responses to queries posed by members of our community.

We warmly invite you to join us in person, or if you prefer, you can also participate online. We look forward to seeing you there! 

Our service streams to Youtube and Zoom (meeting ID is 466-677-668 and the password is 454623).

Join us for coffee in the Community Room after the service. 

New Sunday Service Times starting April 5, 2026

Beginning Easter Sunday, April 5, First Unitarian Denver will move to a two-service schedule each Sunday.

The first service will begin at 9:15 a.m. and will be streamed live on YouTube and Zoom. Religious Exploration will also take place during the 9:15 a.m. service. Following the service, all are warmly invited to gather for coffee and conversation until the second service begins.

The second service will start at 11:00 a.m. Please note that this service will not be streamed online. Coffee time will also follow the 11:00 a.m. service.

We look forward to gathering together in this new rhythm of worship and connection.

Please see the announcement for the Great Easter (Giving) Hunt in First Announce. Donations needed!

The Great Easter (Giving )Hunt: Donations Needed

(Thanks to Leslie Harvey, for the post) 

Instead of hunting for candy on Easter Sunday, our children will be hunting for something even sweeter — your donated goods!

Here’s how it works:

Please purchase the requested items from the list below, bring them to church by April 4th, and place them in the labeled bins near the front door. Before the Easter service, the goods will be hidden throughout the church. On Easter morning when we go to classes, the children will search for them and then work together to assemble care kits for folks who are unhoused.

This year, we’ll be filling gallon-sized Ziploc bags with practical items that beloved souls who are unhoused might find helpful. After the children put the kits together, congregants will be invited to pick up a few on April 12th to keep in their cars and share with folks they encounter who may need them.

It’s an Easter egg hunt with heart — helping all of us to live our UU Shared Values of Generosity and Love and model those values in real, tangible ways for our youngest congregants.

Please help us make our annual Easter tradition a success this year! If you are financially able, please purchase any of the following items so we can put together care kits of helpful items for those who need them:

*gallon sized ziplock bags (compostable is an environmentally friendly option)

*bottle
