FORUM
Every Sunday (September through May) at 11:15 am, the liveliest discussion,
best information sharing, and deepest pondering
happens in our FORUM. Local and international authorities on a wide range
of topics keep us connected to the larger world. We gather in classroom
three for the presentation, and then the discussion. Check the Newsletter for upcoming
FORUM topics.
BOOK
DISCUSSIONS
Weekday and weekend book discussion groups meet monthly to explore a
commonly read book. The topics are varied, chosen by each group each
spring; the discussion are lively; the friendships
endure. There is always room for a new member - contact
the office if you would like to have
a group leader contact you with more information.
COVENANT
GROUPS
These small, structured groups provide a safe and supportive community in
which to explore more deeply the issues of life, the ideas of faith, and
the events of we each encounter along the way. Groups meet on weekday
mornings and Friday evenings. There is always room for a new member - contact the office if you
would like to have a group leader contact you with more information.
EDGAR'S
PLACE
Second Saturdays are music times at UUCC. The tradition of the coffeehouse
scene is alive and well: good music in the folk vein. Nibbles to enjoy.

MEDITATION
GROUP
Monday evenings, a sitting meditation group welcomes all who want to
explore the meaning of life by seeking spirital
discipline and a loss of attachment to the physical realm. There is always
room for a new member - contact the office if you would like to have a group
leader contact you with more information.
MEN'S GROUP
Twice a month, an evening gathering of men consider
topics of their own choosing, in a safe, confidential setting. There is
always room for a new member - contact the office if you would like to have a group
leader contact you with more information.
POTLUCKS
Every month we have a potluck meal -- just bring whatever you want to share
. . . some people cook at home and others avail themselves of something
from the store. Often there is a program associated with the meal, like a
July 4th party, a discussion on church-related community action, a Day
of the Dead celebration, etc. Check the Newsletter for current
offerings.
RAINBOW CAFE
This Saturday evening cafe is intended for gay men, lesbians, bisexual and transgendered adults, and their allies. . This is a
community service and outreach, and is not limited to UU members. It meets
on the third Saturday evening of each month beginning October 20th, at 7
p.m. The event is informal, with no planned program other than an optional
discussion group -- just a chance to meet and enjoy interacting with
like-minded individuals. Those attending are encouraged to bring some
nonalcoholic drinks and a desert or snack to pass, or to bring a financial
donation, but neither is mandatory. Contact the church office for more information.
