Fall @ UEC — Sunday Gatherings
Sunday Gathering is our chance to press pause on our busy lives & spend time with each other and God. Expect a delicious meal that’s way better than dorm food, deep conversation with friendly students and a message that grounds you in the midst of the chaos.
All Sunday Gatherings are at Grace University Lutheran Church (324 Harvard St SE) unless noted.
