Unitarian Universalism honors wisdom from many sources—world religions, philosophy, science, art, and personal experience. At UU Casper, our Interfaith services draw on this rich diversity, exploring spiritual practices, teachings, and stories from traditions across the globe.
These services celebrate the beauty of religious pluralism and invite us into deeper understanding of the common values that unite humanity—compassion, justice, hope, and reverence for life. Whether through music, ritual, history, or storytelling, we seek to learn from one another and to honor the sacred in its many forms.
By lifting up voices and traditions beyond our own, Interfaith services help us practice respect, cultivate curiosity, and build bridges of peace in our community and our world.

UU Sheridan member and UUA Mountain District Board President Victor Ashear summarizes and shares his personal beliefs about the five big theological questions “…as a way to evaluate where many UU’s stand now theologically compared to other faiths…”: 1. Who am I? 2. How do I know (what I know)? 3. Who or what is in charge (of the universe)? 4. What is my purpose in life (or How am I saved)? and 5. What does my death mean?
