The Unitarian Universalist Community Church of Santa Monica welcomes the public to delight in the spirit of the season. Please join us for seven unique Winter Holiday Services to be celebrated in our historic sanctuary at 18th and Arizona.
This service, hosted by Worship Associates Rima Synder and Judith Martin-Straw, will honor solstice traditions across cultures and through the ages. We will mark the longest night of the year with rituals of chant, candle lighting and sacred silence – embracing the dark and celebrating the return of light.
Please also join us for an informal welcoming reception before the service, at 6:00 pm in Angeline Forbes Hall, next to the sanctuary.

The Unitarian Universalist Community Church of Santa Monica (UUSM) was founded in 1927 and is affiliated with the national Unitarian Universalist Association. The UUSM community embraces many beliefs and many backgrounds. UUs celebrate unity in diversity, affirming the supreme worth of all persons, held together through love and a spark of divinity that resides in us all. Our community is a Welcoming Congregation, welcoming all persons and families regardless of sexual orientation.
With one of the largest UU Religious Education programs in Southern California, we support both youth and adults in their search for understanding, insight and inspiration. Many congregants share their Unitarian Universalism as a family.
