July 23rd-July29th, 2019 Worship this week Sunday, July 28th, 2019 Pride Faith Service The Unitarian Universalist Church of Greeley was selected to host the first Greeley Pride weekend faith service. Our own Julie Miller will be delivering the message at the service this week and we expect quite a few visitors. Following the service will be a potluck with the theme "Love Wins!" We hope that many in our congregation will be able to attend and to stay for the potluck.
