Christmas Eve Services

At The

First UU Society

of Burlington, Vermont

If you are planning to attend one of the Christmas Eve Worship Services at FUUSB this year, there are some things you should think about and plan ahead for. We are very excited to be offering three services this year as we did pre-pandemic.



Services

4 p.m. – All are welcome to this family-centered service in the Sanctuary, featuring a No-Rehearsal Nativity Pageant and candlelighting.


6 p.m. and 8 p.m. – Traditional Christmas Eve services for all ages, ending in candlelight.

Come celebrate the beauty of Christmas through stories, scripture, and music

both traditional and new.

Join us in the Sanctuary at 6 or 8 p.m.



Parking

Please note that there is no longer parking available in the Elmwood Ave. lot. The Society will be marking off all the spots directly behind the Meeting House as Handicapped Parking, please do not park there unless you need to. You will need to find either street parking or you will need to park in one of the city garages. Please plan to arrive early enough to find parking.



Masking

Due to the limitations of our Sanctuary's airflow, we will require all visitors to the Sanctuary to wear a mask. We will have some masks available, but please try to remember to bring your

own mask. Service leaders will remove

their masks while speaking.



Capacity

The capacity of the Meeting House for Christmas Eve is 400 people. Once we reach that capacity, we will lock the doors. Please arrive with all members of your group together to avoid having one member turned away while the others are in the Sanctuary.



Livestreaming

Our 4 p.m. and our 6 p.m. services will be livestreamed. Please go to our website at https://bit.ly/FUUSBWorship

You may also go to our YouTube channel

to watch the service at a later time.



Christmas Morning Breakfast

meet the drop-off volunteers inside the east entrance (the entrance by the ramp.) It's not

Candle Lighters/Ushers

We still need a few people to sign up for the
