Activities
|
Much of the life of our congregation takes place apart from Sunday Morning Worship. UUCLV congregation, friends, and members offer and support a variety of services, committees and other small groups for exploration, discussion, and edification. These groups provide many opportunities for socialization and social justice work, service groups, special interest groups, and more. Check out the offerings below to see if there is a group for which you have been looking, or a group that might be looking for you! Let us know and we'll be glad to help you find something that matches with your interests and unique needs.
For more detailed information about any of these activities, contact information is included with each description. Additionally, please visit our calendar. To be reminded of our upcoming events, you can subscribe to receive our weekly announcements directly to your email inbox. |

Circle Suppers
Circle Suppers are potluck dinners that take place in homes of members and friends throughout the valley. Each supper brings together a different group of people for great food and even better conversation. They take place several times per year, so keep an eye on Weekly Flash announcements or contact a member of our Admin Team.

And More...
New groups, which often form around interests like art, nature, or poetry, become active when there is enough interest in our congregation. Some of our previously active groups wax and wane along with the interests and time constraints of their membership. If you are interested in starting a new group, or if you wish to breathe new life into a group that is currently on hiatus, please contact our church office at [email protected].
