Sunday Services
Hybrid services at UUCJ are held at 1255 Prendergast Avenue, Jamestown, NY, on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. As we currently do not have a minister, each Sunday may be led by a different person and will feature a message from a different speaker. Details about each service, along with links for those who prefer to attend remotely, are found in the calendar listings at uujamestown.org/calendar.
Valet Service
Valet service is available for those of us who are unable to climb the back staircase off of the parking lot. If you have a driver, pull into the driveway in front of the grove of trees to the right of the building and a volunteer will escort you inside while your driver parks the car. If you are driving alone, a volunteer will escort you inside, and a volunteer will park your car for you.
WINTER UPDATE: We will have no parking volunteers through the winter months. However, if you have a driver, you can still be dropped off at the front door and someone will escort you into the sanctuary.
Phone Linda Hiers at 716-951-0925 by 8:00 Saturday evening, if you need this assistance, (you can leave a message).
This assistance will take place for everyone between 10:00 to 10:20 AM. (It is important to arrive within this time frame, so that the volunteers and those being assisted will be able to be seated by 10:30 when the Sunday Service begins.
