Why You Shouldn’t Second Guess Your Decisions (The School of Life)

Sunday Worship Service: “The Choices We Make-Character Creation”

Sunday, August 9, 2026, 11:00 AM ~ All worship services will be offered in a hybrid format –  In person at UUYO in Channing Hall or virtually via Zoom.
– Every choice and decision we have ever made has shifted each of our stories along different routes; each leading us to different places and becoming different people. We were all kids once, but all of us had different choices to make to become who we are today. Join us as we discuss the choices we make and how they shape our Character.

August Give Away the Plate: Planned Parenthood of Greater Ohio

The center provides essential healthcare services, including emergency contraception (the morning-after pill), pregnancy testing, STI/STD testing and treatment, birth control, cancer screenings, and comprehensive sexual and reproductive health care. In addition to providing healthcare services, Planned Parenthood advocates for policies that support reproductive health and access to care. The organization also works to address disparities in maternal health. Black women in the United States are approximately three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than White women and experience significantly higher rates of pregnancy-related complications. Planned Parenthood seeks to help reduce these disparities by expanding access to quality healthcare, education, and reproductive health services in underserved communities.

Religious Exploration 2026-2027

 

UUYO RE: All You Need to Know

September 2026 – May 2027

This year, our Religious Education children and youth will take part in All You Need to Know, a program inspired by Marilyn vos Savant’s book Growing Up. Throughout the year, we’ll explore an exciting idea: some of our greatest teachers are already right here in our own community!

We are inviting members and friends of UUYO to share their knowledge, expertise, talents, skills, and passions with our children and youth. Do you garden, bake, paint, fix things, play an instrument, study history, understand science, practice a craft, know about another culture—or simply have something you love and would enjoy sharing? We’d love to hear from you!

Each session will give our young people an opportunity to learn something new while getting to know the remarkable people who make up our church community.

Interested in leading a session? Contact Kathleen at DRE@UUYO.org.

Come share what you know—and help our children discover how much there is to learn! Find Out more Here.
