Who we are
Enriching the Spirit. Motivating Action. On Chicago’s Far Westside.
Spirit & Mission
Spirit:
Our Sunday service is called “Celebration of Life,” which reminds us of the spirit that we hope to bring to daily living. It suggests both deep respect for life and tenacity in living it well in the service of others. We find inspiration in working for justice and peace; finding the wisdom in every religion; celebrating, singing and working together; and nurturing our children.
Our congregation is a blend of humanists, theists, agnostics and atheists, many with spiritual and family roots in traditional religions. We are a non-creed church (see Membership) but do follow the seven Unitarian Universalist Principles that guide our belief and practice.
Mission:
Love is the spirit of our church, and service is its law. With free minds and open hearts, our congregational family will create beauty, confront injustice, and give comfort and courage to people as diverse as our world

Third Unitarian Church Chicago Service Times
Services – Our Celebration of Life
Our “Celebration of Life” service is held each Sunday morning at 11AM from the second week of September through the third week of June.TUC fr balcony 2
Sunday morning services generally consist of opening words and chalice lighting; a brief “Time for All Ages” with our children; minister-led readings, meditations and sermon; and, throughout the service, music – richly varied piano, from classical to jazz, with Unitarian hymns, some in the Protestant tradition. Optional childcare is provided for children younger than preschool age.
Our “Time for All Ages” is often a story related to the themes of the religious education (RE) classes the children attend when they leave the service. Over the year, the Celebration of Life will occasionally be an Intergenerational service presented by the children and RE staff.
