Sunday services begin at 10:30 and conclude before noon. Services are followed by socializing and a potluck smorgasbord, arranged with minimal planning. If you prefer to watch the service online, we share it on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@uuchurchstillwater9753/live. Our live stream does not allow you to see the Trail Markers portion of the service or to interact with others, but everything else is the same.

1) When you have problems you’d like to discuss, job, children, marriage or anything else where a sympathetic ear might be of help.
2) When you are going into the hospital, or when someone close to you is going in, or when you know of someone else in the church going in.
3) When someone close to you has died or is critically ill.
4) When you are planning on getting married.
5) When it is the middle of the night, and you are in some sort of trouble and you don’t know who else to call.
6) When you are struggling with fears or doubts about the way things are now.
7) When you know of needs that the Pastor's Emergency Fund might help meet.
