Next Step Classes
At ULC, we want to make it easy for folks to dig a little deeper, thus the next step classes were formed.

The Common Cup
The Common Cup is our coffee shop with the mission to leave a mark of God’s love on our community and the world. We do this by providing a welcoming atmosphere, excellent beverages, and partnering with other local businesses. Stop by for your favorite beverage sometime soon!
Community Groups
An intentional gathering of 3-15 people who agree to share life together. They plan where and when to meet and arrange their schedules to be there for the purpose of being together and being formed as Christ’s disciples. They work together to live out their “sent-ness” into the world. Community Groups love God and love each other.
All Student Gathering
During the academic year and as a regular part of our college ministry, ULC offers a chance for college students to connect and worship together every Wednesday night at 7p. Students gather for a meal and community before doing a time of worship and Bible study, and breaking off into smaller groups for discussion questions and prayer.
Alpha
Seminars and group discussion on the fundamentals of faith.
We all wonder. Maybe you or a friend are curious about the Christian faith. What do Christians believe? What’s the deal with the Bible? In Alpha we gather each week for 8 weeks to share a meal, listen to a talk, and discuss questions like these. If you’re interested in learning more about Christianity join us for Alpha!
Pubology
Pubology is all about public conversations on deep stuff.
Once a month we reserve a room at The Original Cottage Inn Pizza House (location change!) grab a beer, a slice of pizza and listen to an expert present on an important cultural question. Following the presentation there’s a Q and A with the presenter and discussions at our table. If you want a safe and thoughtful way to engage the public conversations of our day join us for Pubology!
