A joint worship service of Tree of Life UU & Prairie Circle UU
We close out our 2025-2026 church year together as sibling congregations, with Prairie Circle UU visiting us at our new church home for a creative and interactive service. This Sunday will feature a round table, creativity café style service with opportunities for creating and sharing. You are invited to bring or wear a T-shirt that reflects your values, beliefs, or commitments. You are also invited to bring your PRIDE flags, buttons, or colors as we celebrate and honor the last Sunday of PRIDE month. Join Chaplain Dave and our two sibling congregations in shared meaning-making, celebrations of our spirit, and community fellowship.

Like a Good Neighbor…a note from Chaplain Dave Becker
Dear Tree of Life members and friends,
It is such an exciting time to be part of Tree of Life as we build new relationships with members of RCLPC and MCJC. As we settle in to our new home and ‘learn the ropes’ in our new area, we have a few requests of each of you.
The building we are now worshiping in is amidst a residential neighborhood, and we have new neighbors, outside of our congregations, who are also adjusting to having a bit more traffic rolling by lately, especially on Sunday mornings. Our Co-Op team made of representatives from our three congregations are discussing ways to get to know our new neighbors and neighborhood in order to develop positive relationships with them. In the meantime, we would like to ask all Tree of Life members and visitors to consider the following:
- Remember to always drive carefully and respectfully through our neighborhood. Absolutely no speeding at any time (even if running late).
- When making deliveries at the church, please pull up as close to the curb as possible so as not to block the roadway. Alternatively, please consider using the back entrance to do your drop-off.
- When you see a neighbor while on church grounds, feel free to give them a smile and wave. Let’s communicate care and caring for our new neighbors and our new neighborhood in all our actions.
With gratitude, Chaplain Dave Becker
