Upcoming Services

Gloucester UU joins Rockport and Essex for worship this Sunday at First Univ of Essex, or on Zoom. 
 
Sunday August 23rd 10 am Stronger Together with Rev. Tess Baumberger
Join us for a service about how we can be stronger by working together, using the symbols of spinning threads and weaving tapestries.  The service will include a simple ritual, poetry, and meditations on the power of collaboration.  
 
To join us via Zoom please visit uuessex.org and click on the Zoom link.  If you’re coming in person, there is some street parking or you can use the municipal lot. Coming from Gloucester you would go past the church and take your first left onto Martin Street, then go left again on Shepherd Street.  Please know the central spots in the lot are reserved for boat and trailer parking during the summer.  If you go up the stairs at the end of the lot, you can cross the parking lot and make your way to the church.
