Indigenous Wisdom and the Crisis of Ecology - Reverend Clyde Grubbs Each week during the church year, the children and youth share in the beginning of the worship service, which includes a Story for All Ages, and then proceed to the Social Hall for their classes unless an intergenerational service is being held. Nursery care is available for our youngest congregants (age 3 and under) beginning at 10:15. Following our Sunday services, the church hosts a coffee and fellowship hour for all ages.
Surveys of our congregation show us to be quite theologically diverse, leaning strongly to neither Humanism nor Christianity, but open to and respectful of a variety of spiritual ideas and interpretations. Many of us are active in civic activities and nonprofit organizations based both in Wakefield and beyond. * We are also proud to be a Welcoming Congregation. Having fulfilled the requirements of our denomination to be a Welcoming Congregation," the Wakefield UU Church is intentional about celebrating the presence and full participation of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons in all aspects of congregational life. We are located in downtown Wakefield, a block from Lake Quannapowitt and across the street from the Post Office. First erected in 1839 and modified several times after that, it is the oldest church building in town. It has survived two fires and three lightning strikes. The spire will, however, never be struck by lightning again! As the first step to major and necessary repairs and renovations, we had our spire removed on October 7, 2008.
