Seeking Truth, Building Community, and Promoting Justice
Welcoming Congregation
We are a welcoming congregation that seeks to be a spiritual home for people of free faith. We value the full range of human diversity, including race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, affectional/sexual orientation, age, national origin, socioeconomic status, and ability.
We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional and sacred land of the Anishinaabe and Dakota people. In honor of their stewardship throughout the generations, we commit ourselves to protecting that land and working to mitigate the effects of climate change.
The St. Cloud Unitarian Universalist Fellowship is a small religious community serving the central Minnesota area. We are a welcoming congregation and a member of the Unitarian Universalist Association which has more than one thousand congregations in the United States and Canada.
Our denomination has a shared set of shared values and principles to guide us rather than a prescribed creed. Each individual has an opportunity to seek their own spiritual path. Our efforts and growth are encouraged through intellectual, aesthetic, supportive and spiritual programs and activities and through discussions among members and friends.
If you are seeking an open and welcoming religious environment, please visit us and share in our fellowship.
Sunday Services
We meet at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday mornings from September through May. The services usually include music, readings, a presentation by a minister or other speaker, and a chance to respond to the presentation. Casual dress is common and the service is less formal than many churches. Visitors are welcome.
On two select Sundays of each month from September to May, a Children’s Religious Education (CRE) experience, based on UU Principles, is offered for children and youth ages 5 – 16. Recent topics have included: Cultivating Compassion, Building Belonging, Nurturing Gratitude, Choosing Hope, and Meditation. Occasionally we go on a Sunday field trip, and last year we attended a Catholic Mass and visited a Hindu Temple.
A “CRE Corner” in the Sanctuary has quiet games and activities for youngsters to enjoy during the other Sundays of the month. “Time for Children” story time is offered early in most services and a nursery is available for infants and toddlers.

DECEMBER 2025
10:30 a.m. Sunday, December 7: When Hope is Hard to Find — Rev. Phillip Lund
It’s been said that “the opposite of fear is hope.” But how do we find hope when our world is full fear?
That’s where the practice of active hope comes in. Rather than something we have, active hope is something we do. Stay afterward to enjoy soup and bread.
Children’s Program (CRE): The Rabbit Listened teaches that sometimes the best way to help someone is to empathically listen. As we learned, kindness heals, everyone matters, and listening can instill hope. Join us as Selah Taylor guides this session. Children under 5 are welcome to stay in the Nursery with Ms. Saleh.
10:30 a.m. Sunday, December 14: Celebrating the Season Together
Using music, poetry, and reflections, we will celebrate this season of darkness and hope. Our Musicians and Program Committee offer this program of celebration. Contact Carol Musielewicz if you have a poem, reflection, music, or reading to share.
Children’s Activity: Holiday Play and activities with Ms. Mary Ness and Ms. Saleh. More to be revealed soon. Bring your dreidels.
10:30 a.m. Sunday, December 21: Hope for the Holidays – Rev. Phillip Lund
As our culture relentlessly promises the comfort and joy of the latest consumer products, many of us can feel overwhelmed at this time of year. This morning we’ll reflect on the question, “Where do you find hope in the midst of this hectic holiday season?”
Children’s Program (CRE): We will use Dr. Daniel’s Siegel’s image of ‘flipping our lid’ to discuss how dysregulation can interfere with compassion, and we’ll practice some mindfulness techniques that can help restore regulation. Jean Keller will guide this class. Children under 5 are welcome to stay in the Nursery with Ms. Saleh.
NO SERVICE or CRE on Sunday, December 28. Have a delightful Winter Break!
SERVICES RESUME on January 4.
