Unitarian Universalist Church of Vancouver

It's ok. I'm just not attending it.

Unitarians are not real warm people. Many are wounded ducks. They're not going to hold your hand. The current minister is perceptive & diligent, but the congregation itself does a lot of the leading. Membership includes a lot of people in their 70s. There are children & children's programs. Some members are Christian; many are not. There is frequently a large, calm service dog on a leash sitting outside before 2nd service, then going in. You have to be a librarian to understand where your nametag is kept in the series of nametags. The acoustics are perfectly medium, nothing too loud & not too quiet. If you park in the west lot, there are no stairs into the service or children's programs & coffee hour is also at the chapel. Coffee hour has meant holding a cup & plate while balancing a purse, without a table or seating. However, when the chapel is used for meetings after service, then the library is open for coffee hour, & it has many tables/chairs. The kitchen staff are clean & friendly. Please consider volunteering in the kitchen and bringing snacks. Lactose free milk or creamer is usually offered but dishes containing gluten, eggs or nuts are not labeled. You need a food handler's card. The grounds are lovely & there is a play area. There are many activities every week, as well as after service on Sundays during the holidays. The facility is clean.

Very friendly, like-minded fellowship. Many opportunities to get to know members in smaller, informal groups.

I have visited twice now and found very friendly people, lots of church activity, very open and welcoming. I'll definitely be returning and getting more involved.
