A Typical Worship Service

A typical Sunday worship will include the following elements:

Singing
Beginning the Journey (a story about the theme of worship that day)
Welcome from a Board of Trustees member
Music (organ, piano, guitar or other instruments) (find out more about UUCB’s rich music program here)
Lighting the Chalice
Singing
Story for All Ages
Reflection
Music (organ, piano and/or choir)
Sermon (Hear and read samples of past sermons here.)
Prayer
Music
Offering
Singing
Benediction
Musical Benediction

Although this is a “typical” liturgy, there is great creativity and diversity in how each element might be accomplished.

Music can be especially diverse with a variety of instruments being heard and a range of musical influences and styles. Classical and traditional “church music” is augmented by popular music, spirituals, chants, etc.
