Welcome to Eliot Chapel's Sunday service!

“Flourishing Through Nature” – Lynn Murphy

This Sunday we will reflect upon nature, the Earth, and our connection to them as a source for helping us flourish.

About our guest speaker: Lynn Murphy has been a member of Eliot Chapel since the 1980s. During her years here, she has been a board member, a religious education teacher, a leader of children’s worship, co-chair of the Welcoming Congregation Forum, worship leader for women’s retreats and summer services, choir member, and a drum circle leader. She currently leads an Earth-Based Spirituality covenant group, and in the past also started and led an LGBTQIA covenant group.

This is an offering of our summer sermon series, So You Think You Can Preach!

  • Where do I park?

    There are two small lots behind the church that may be accessed from Madison (the street that runs right along the railroad tracks just south of the Chapel). There are a few spaces reserved for Visitors in the closest lot to Eliot.


    Newcomers may park in the Farmer's Market spaces on Argonne Rd. between Taylor and Kirkwood Rd, but members and friends are requested to leave these parking spaces for Farmer's Market customers.


    There are public parking lots across from the Farmer's Market and just west of the Market.

    There are also a few business lots off Argonne Rd.

  • What should I wear?

    There is no dress code at our church. People wear what they are most comfortable in, and it varies from "Sunday Best" to shorts and sandals or jeans and a sweatshirt, or anything in between.

  • What about my kids?

    Children and youth will usually attend the first 15 minutes of the 9:45 worship service with their families before being sung out to go to their class or group. Please check This Week at Eliot for current details.


    We usually offer nursery care during both services. Occasionally on  a holiday or during the summer, nursery care is unavailable. Please check This Week at Eliot for current details.


    Families may also use Adams Hall for freedom of movement while the service is livestreamed on the large-screen television.


    Check out more information about our Religious Education program.

  • What type of music will I hear?

    An inspirational blend of traditional and contemporary, selected in collaboration between the Minister and Music Director. Participants are volunteers and guest soloists.

“Pride Sunday. We Will Survive! We Will Thrive!” 

Chad Keller, Lily Chouteau-Scherr, Kathy Becker

In the face of increased adversity for the LGBTQIA+ communities, it’s time to be loud and proud!

Progress Pride Flag


Each of us has worth and dignity, and that worth includes our gender and our sexuality. As Unitarian Universalists, we not only open our doors to people of all sexual orientations and gender identities, we value diversity of sexuality and gender and see it as a spiritual gift. We create inclusive religious communities and work for LGBTQ justice and equity as a core part of who we are. All of who you are is sacred. All of who you are is welcome.
