Have other people's ideas about religion kept you from coming to church? Do you yearn for a loving, spiritual community where you can be inspired and encouraged as you search for your own truth and meaning? Find a home in the First Unitarian Universalist Church of Lubbock.

We are a church without creed or dogma where people with different beliefs worship together as one faith. The church has a rich history, with followers who were among our founding fathers such as John Adams, as well as leading literary figures such as Henry David Thoreau and social activists such as Susan B. Anthony. We welcome all persons regardless of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religious beliefs.

We are a welcoming congregation.

11:00 AM, Service: “More Love in Our Relationships”, Kelsang Chondzin. Buddhism gives many practical and profound ideas on how to improve our relationships. We want to be happy all the time, but this can sometimes elude us. What is it that holds us back? Buddhism has some simple ideas and meditations to dissolve that and bloom our relationships. We can create springtime in our hearts! We are truly the masters of our experience of the world. Chondzin is a fully ordained nun in the New Kadampa Tradition, a tradition that emphasizes practical, "user friendly" Buddhism. She has been studying for 10 years, ordained 8 years, and is the resident teacher at Bodhichitta Kadampa Buddhist Center in Lubbock. Before ordaining, Chondzin led a full life in the world. She had a long term marriage (still friends with her ex!) and has raised a son to nicely functioning adulthood. Academically, Chondzin is a graduate of Stanford University and has a master's degree in counseling from Antioch. In the professional realm, Chondzin was a reading specialist in the public schools for 10 years, an agency counselor for criminal drug addicts for 4 years, and then moved into a private counseling practice.
