10:00 am: Share the Plate


May 17, 2026

The Program

The Share-the-Plate program raises money to give to local agencies which are trying to improve life for Chester County residents.

Eleven times a year, UCWC gives approximately half of the collection plate to a congregation-nominated recipient. Funds are given to small, local organizations for whom our gift is very meaningful in the continuance of their efforts.

Your donation to the plate is split 50/50 with the recipient organization unless you designate otherwise ("100% to recipient" or "100% to UCWC" for example) in the check memo or accompanying letter.

2025-2026 Recipients

Nov 16 – Baby Food Fund
Dec 21 – Act in Faith
Jan 18 – Kennett Area Community Services
Feb 15 – Volunteer English Program
Mar 15 – West Chester University Resource Pantry

Music Sunday - "Come to the Dance" - Miriam Davidson, Lisa Bennett, Rev. Dan Schatz and UCWC Musicians
“Come to the Dance” is an invitation to step into community, into connection, into the shared rhythm of being human together. It’s about how we move with one another through change and challenge, how we find joy and resilience, and how we create something beautiful when we show up fully. Please plan to stay after the service for an important Finance Town Hall!

10:00 am: Sunday Service: Muffin Sunday - "Gardening for the Spirit"


May 24, 2026

In Person & Live Stream

"Gardening for the Spirit"
Kathy Beatty, Mark Demitrack, Dexter Chisholm, UCWC Members
On May 24, 2026 we will be holding a Muffin Sunday service with the theme of "Gardening for the Spirit". Congregation members and guests are invited to share gardening experiences — whether a memorable garden, a story of one that went awry, the spirituality of gardening, or a piece of music, poetry, or reading. The service will be streamed, so we will ask that you come up to the microphone to ensure that those joining from home can be included.
Tables will be set up in the sanctuary in a coffeehouse format so folks can enjoy food and drink during the service. Tables in the rear of the sanctuary will provide an inviting array of breakfast treats. These will include coffee & teas, home-baked muffins, and other breakfast delights, including vegan and gluten-free options. Come hungry — and enjoy! After grabbing your treats, you can take a moment to greet your neighbors and share a few words before the service begins. Then, settle in for the rest of the service — and feel free to quietly get up for refills whenever you like.
