Sermons
Our minister, Rev. Jessica P. Rodela, calls herself a preacher. There’s a hint of irony there, because that word tends to conjure up a certain "fire and brimstone" theology that isn’t to be found in our congregation. It’s accurate, however, because she speaks with a passion and a power that keeps us thinking all week. To share her trademark blend of humour and drama, you can find our most recent Sunday services and our past sermon archive on our Grand River Unitarian YouTube channel.
UU congregations are welcome to access, adapt, and use material from our service archive during the pandemic closures. Contact Rev. Jess to request downloadable files or other material for service use.
