Mission. The life and well-being of the congregation grow and are renewed by what happens in worship services every Sunday. The overall purpose of the Worship Committee is to work with our minister in offering worship that invites everyone towards lives of wholeness, service, and joy.
Responsibilities. The Committee assists our minister for weekly Sunday worship. This requires arranging for Worship Assistants from our congregation. They receive public-speaking guidance, which communicates that we care enough about what we are doing to do it well. Committee Members may also support the services in the areas of music selection, sound system setup, layout of the worship space, communication, arrangements, and soliciting feedback from the congregation regarding the worship experience.
Furthermore, the Worship Committee plans services: one Sunday per month during the church year and approximately ten services during the summer. This planning typically involves arranging for guest speakers, visiting ministers, or service leaders from our own congregation.
Our Inspiration. The Worship Committee and Worship Assistants are part of the innovation and tradition at First Unitarian Church of St. Louis that is a living, vibrant expression of Unitarian Universalism.
