Holidays and Traditions
The holiday celebrations in Unitarian Universalist congregations reflect the six Sources of our faith.
CUF, like many Unitarian Universalist congregations, celebrates Christian holidays like Christmas, Jewish holidays like Passover, and Pagan Winter Solstice (“Yule”), among others. Our holiday services use the stories and traditions creatively, calling us to our deeper humanity and our commitment to the good.
In addition to religious holidays, we also honor secular holidays including Earth Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Labor Day, Indigenous Peoples Day, and Thanksgiving.
CUF also celebrates the quintessentially UU “Ingathering” and “Flower Communion” holidays, which mark the beginning and ending of the church year, respectively.
