Join us for our annual Christmas Eve Candlelight Service on Wednesday at 6:00 pm as we travel from our sanctuary to Bethlehem to celebrate good tidings of great joy and peace and a living hope with stories, songs, prayers, and carols. Refreshments and fellowship will follow. All are welcome! Join us for worship in our historic Sanctuary at 18th and Arizona, online or in-person.

Parking is available in the regular UCLA Hospital parking structure at 16th and Arizona. No need for a parking pass; just tell the attendant you are attending the UUSM Christmas Eve service.
