Celebration and Worship
Children's Choir Performing
- Choir (Adult) (a Music committee): Under the direction of Mark Sumner, the adult choir performs from a large repertoire of classical, liturgical, and modern music approximately three Sundays each month with summers off. The annual schedule includes special holiday music, a spring concert of a major work with orchestra, and performances with the combined choirs of other Bay Area UU congregations. Rehearsals convene each Thursday evening from 7:15 to 9:30PM. The choir welcomes new members at any time during the church year. To find out more about joining the choir, call Mark Sumner at 415-776-4580, extension 252, or stop by on a Thursday evening and see for yourself how wonderful it is to lift your voice in song!
- Children's & Youth Choir (a Music committee): The Youth Choir, for ages 7 and up, meets each Sunday as part of the Sunday school program. Under the direction of Carolyn Jayne, participants learn basic singing skills and perform during services several times each year. For more information about the Youth Choir, contact the Director of Religious Education's Office at 415-776-4580.
- Choir - Bell Choir (a Music committee): Organist Reiko Lane conducts the three-octave Bell Choir, a recent addition to the music program. The Bell Choir rehearses each Thursday evening from 6:00 to 7:00PM and performs at selected services each church year. It is open to new members at any time. For more information, contact Reiko Lane at 415-776-4580, extension 282.
- Folk Orchestra (a Music committee): The Folk Ensemble began in 2002 and performs two to three times each church year, providing non-traditional musical offerings. The Ensemble accepts musicians of all levels and any instrument and rehearses Sunday morning before church. For more information about how to join, contact Phil Benezra, the Ensemble leader.
Wear A Hat to Church Day
- Flower Committee: If you would
like to remember a loved one or celebrate a special event or anniversary,
consider giving the Chancel flowers for a Sunday service. Sign up on the
list posted on the bulletin board in the Gallery (next to the garage stairs).
The charge is $35, payable to the church by check with "flower dedication" in
the subject line. For more information you can contact Judy Payne by email
.
- King's Art Gallery and Art Committee : The Art Committee serves our Society by arranging a broad and diverse range of art exhibits in the Kings' Gallery and encouraging participation in the arts by members of the congregation. The King's Gallery is an alternative show-space which has
been serving the art community of the Bay Area for many years. It represents
a "win-win" situation, providing artists with two large
rooms to show their work while also enhancing the environment of the First
Unitarian Universalist Church's environments.The committee also serves as
an outreach to the community at large and brings in income to the church
in the form of donations made to the church in the
form of a percentage of the sales of art work.
- Music Committee: Music has been an indispensable part of UUSF’s spiritual life from the very beginning, and today the First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco supports a strong and vibrant music program. Music abounds here! See the separate listings for our Choir, Children's Choir, Bell Choir, and Folk Ensemble for more information.
- Ushers Committee: Ushering is a way to attend a Sunday
service and assist the church at the same time. It's a joy to warmly welcome
people into the sanctuary and to help facilitate our wonderful Sunday services.
Volunteers are always needed; sign up for one Sunday a month or as an alternate.
