- Worship is not a production or a performance. Worship is an a time set aside for an encounter with God, and is aided by words, sights, sounds, and silence that foster that encounter. At UniChu, you'll find worship that is best described as 'organic' - that is, it grows out of the context and lives of the gathered community. We worship from 10:00 to 11:15 every Sunday morning. Join us!
What to Expect
Leadership
Greg Schaefer
The Rev. Greg Schaefer is a California native, having grown up right here in the Bay Area on a cattle ranch in the East Bay. A Lutheran pastor, he came to Stanford after serving as seminary pastor at Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary in Berkeley. Before that, Pastor Greg was a graduate student at the Graduate Theological Union, studying religion and psychology. Pastoral Care is a real passion of his, so feel free to come by for a chat whenever you'd like. Besides such lofty things as theology, he loves golf, hiking, sailing, flying, cooking (and eating) Spanish food, traveling, horseback riding, and spending time with his wife . . . not necessarily in that order!
