Fort Worth, Texas

Welcome to Westside UU Church!

We are a church where you are free to pursue your own spiritual path in an atmosphere of warmth and acceptance.

In our community, what you believe is less important than how your beliefs guide your interactions with others and the world.

We also strive to create a place where children can develop their ethics and principles without prescribed dogma.

    This Little Unitarian Church in Illinois
    with Reverend Russell Elleven, DMin

    In the last Lincoln/Douglas debate, the soon-to-be president referenced a local congregation that turned out to be one of ours. Russell will attempt to tell you some relevant Civil War stories this Sunday morning.

July Loose Plate Offering

Fort Worth Community Collaborative

Westside’s plate offering for July is the Fort Worth Community Collaborative, https://cowtowncloset.org/. You may have heard of them! Remember bringing food last December and remember the big assemly line we had in the fellowship hall bagging that food? And remember that some Westsiders set forth to help deliver that food? That was Westside collaborating with Fort Worth Community Collaborative! 
Fort Worth Community Collaborative (FWCC) is a community care organization providing free, dignified access to clothing, food, hygiene items, and essential support for individuals and families in North Texas. Through shared meals, mutual aid, and sustainable redistribution, FWCC reduces insecurity, strengthens community connections, and ensures no one is left without what they need to live with dignity. FWCC is a secular grassroots organization that does not require proof of income, proof of status, or religious affiliation from those seeking help.
Fort Worth Community Collaborative was established in 2022. Cowtown Closet, in 2024, began redistributing high-quality, gently used clothing believing that clothing is an essential resource, not a privilege. This service also stewards the planet through mindful reuse and waste reduction. FWCC became a 24 hour access point for emergency clothing and basic needs in partnership with schools and other agencies.
Since then, FWCC has expanded into addressing food insecurity with programs that include free meal kits and kitchen-free car kits. Weekly grocery deliveries are provided to partner families in FWISD. Westside’s partnership in December provided 2 weeks of groceries during the Christmas holidays.
Fort Worth Community Collaborative’s largest annual event is the Back 2 School Bash and it’s coming up soon! – August 8th. FWCC aims to provide 1000 FWISD students with backpacks, supplies and uniforms. Haircuts and eye exams will also be available. Please see Mary Boyce, volunteer extrordinaire with FWCC, or Cindy Fountain if you would like to help with this endeavor. And, please give generously as you are able to this unwavering source of good in Fort Worth.

Give online through the church’s giving page or by using the Vanco Mobile App. Select the “Service Project” fund.  You can also mail a check to the church (901 Page; Fort Worth, TX; 76110). Thank you for your contribution!
