Join us for our “With Grace and Gratitude” Service with Rev. Eric Banner.
Church people talk a lot about grace. The song “Amazing Grace” is sometimes even called America’s national hymn. Church people talk a lot about grace. The song “Amazing Grace” is sometimes even called America’s national hymn. But what if you don’t believe you were born a sinner? What if you don’t believe in God? Is grace even worth talking about? I think so, and I think one of the most powerful acts of grace I ever heard about came from Dolly Parton. Join us this Sunday to answer the question, what is grace to a Unitarian Universalist? 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. Rev. Eric Banner is a lifelong Unitarian Universalist. For the past few years, he has served as the Senior Minister at the First Universalist Church of Denver. When he’s not busy pastoring, he’s busy parenting three daughters and partnering with his wife of nearly 20 years. First Unitarian Society of Denver 1400 N.

From war breaking out in the Middle East, ICE and fascist repression From war breaking out in the Middle East, ICE and fascist repression here all across the US, ongoing genocides in Palestine and Sudan, to all the griefs and struggles we personally hold and navigate every day, it certainly can feel like this world is falling apart here in 2026. How can we speak of gratitude in these times filled with so much suffering and injustice? As we approach the Jewish holiday of Pesach (Passover) – a holiday that is grounded in giving thanks for liberation – we are called upon to ask what gratitude can offer us in these dark and difficult times. Most of all, we are called upon to ask what gratitude can help us offer each other. 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.

An Easter Egg Hunt with a Purpose — Help Our Kids Hunt for Good!
Instead of hunting for candy on Easter Sunday, our children will be hunting for something even sweeter 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: Please drop your donations off just inside the front door by April 4th. Thanks in advance for helping us make this year’s event fun and meaningful for our children. Feel free to email msleslie@fusden.org with any questions. First Unitarian Society of Denver 1400 N.
