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: Mat Bordelon, Jake Starr and Ellie Hanson.

Our May theme is Awakening Curiosity.

May 3, 2026:  Dune and Beyond: Visions of the Human Far Future

Last year, we looked at near future science fiction and how it could help us imagine resolutions to our current crises. This year, we will look at distant future science fiction for the big picture questions they can ask. Using the works of Frank Herbert, Joan D. Vinge, Gene Wolfe, and others, how does shifting our perspective to the very, very big picture teach us to live in the here and now?
