Upcoming Special Events
Wrapping UUCA in Pride
June 6, 2026
Once again, this June Equality UUCA will wrap our church building in flags for Pride month. On Sunday May 31, we will have Pride flags in Fellowship Hall for you to dedicate with your expressions of affirmation and care for the LGBTQIA community. Those will join the flags that we will install on Saturday, June 6 from 10am to noon. If you can join us to help install flags on June 6 (always fun and family friendly) and/or volunteer to monitor flags during the month, there will be sign-up sheets at our flag dedication table in Fellowship Hall.
PRIDE! Sunday
June 14, 2026
All are welcome at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Arlington for our annual Pride Sunday Service of worship. Come see the flags and enjoy the fellowship of a LGBTQIA friendly congregation. Our “share the plate” collection on that Sunday benefits Equality Virginia to help in their statewide campaign to pass the Marriage Amendment. Stay for coffee hour after the service. We are at 4444 Arlington Boulevard (driveway entrance on George Mason Drive right southbound just past the Route 50 overpass). Parking fills up so come early, stroll around the flags, or park in the Masons parking lot (we have permission to park there on Sundays) across George Mason Drive from our driveway entrance.
UUCA Death Cafe
Every 4th Wednesday of the month
Join us in person for UUCA’s monthly free Death Cafe, a relaxed gathering where folks come together to chat about death and things related to death such as end of life planning. It’s a safe space to share stories, ask questions, or just listen. No pressure, just honest conversations about something we all think about but don’t always talk about. Come as you are and be a part of this unique experience!
A Death Cafe is a space for open, honest conversation. Every death cafe is unique. We will share our stories, talk about how grief has shaped our lives, and contemplate how we might want to explore our approach to death. A Death Cafe is a group-led discussion of death; it is not a grief support group or counseling session.

Gratitude Sunday!
Later this week, many of us will gather with family and friends to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. In a world filled with anxiety, pain, and grief, what does it mean to give thanks? How can we express gratitude as a community and as individuals? What are you grateful for this Thanksgiving (aside from Turkey, Stuffing, and Pumpkin Pie)? All Are Welcome. This is a multigenerational service and UUCA’s 3rd Mosaic Sunday of the 2025-2026 church year.
“Church is Not for You”
If we’re open to it, we receive many gifts from our participation in congregational life—but the real trick is to learn to pass those gifts on. Rev. Amanda will explore the paradox of intentional community, which both helps us to build friendships and then asks us to look beyond those friendships toward the greater whole. Or in other words, church is not for you…it’s for us. Join us to think about how UUCA can build the muscles of social contract so needed in the world today.
“Ask Me Anything!”
As Rev. Amanda returns from her sabbatical, have your questions ready—especially about our faith, this moment, and the Big Stuff of life. Will she have all the answers? Definitely not. But we’ll have fun exploring the questions together. Join us to Welcome Back Rev. Amanda
