Sunday Services begin at 10:30 am at 4775 SW 21st Street in Topeka, KS. We are currently without a minister, and our programs are lay-led.  We endeavor to present a variety of inspiring topics that illustrate or relate to our Eight Principles and our UU Values.  

Adults and children start together in Scanland Hall when the program begins at 10:30 am. Most children leave at 10:45 am, after the Time For All Ages, to attend Religious Exploration classes down the hall. Parents may pick them up at 11:45 am.   New children are welcome to join our Religious Exploration classes or to stay in Scanland Hall with the adults. Several times each year, we have a multigenerational service (MultiGen). These services are for all ages, and are designed to be fun and enlightening for everyone.

For infants and toddlers, we have a fully equipped nursery staffed with a paid and experienced attendant and at least one volunteer. You are welcome to make use of the nursery or to keep your infant or toddler with you in the service.

We are grateful for the contributions of our Sunday morning AV Team: Jake Starr and Valerie Eakes Kann.

July 5, 2026:  Patriotism for All, Not Some

How do we celebrate our country while still acknowledging its problems and history of injustice? How do we celebrate it without becoming jingoistic, hostile to other nations and peoples? Join us for an all-ages-appropriate mix of songs, readings, and discussion to tackle these ideas on America’s 250th birthday

Coordinators: Martha Boatright and Janine Silsby

July 26, 2026: Beloved Community — Rev. David Pyle

.

Sometimes it takes those outside of a religious community to reflect back what
is at the center. In this sermon Rev. Pyle looks at almost two decades of conversations with his fellow US Army Chaplains on the nature of Unitarian Universalism and UU Community to look at what is the center that holds us when times in congregational life can be difficult.
