Ongoing Adult Religious Exploration Classes
Buddhist Meditation
Meets monthly before the regular Sunday service for the purpose of supporting the meditation and Buddhist practice of the participants. A secondary goal is to be a gate to Buddhism and meditation for Unitarian Universalists and to UU for Buddhists. Jerry Lindauer, (215)635-6775
Interweave/Welcoming Congregation
A UU membership organization dedicated to the spiritual, political, and social well-being of UUs who are confronting oppression as lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transgender persons and their heterosexual allies. It celebrates the culture and lives of its members. Contact: Barbara McDowell Dowdall, 215-843-4475.
This fall, we will start small group sessions to provide members and friends with a structure that fosters collective dedication to personal reflection, spiritual enlightenment, and community service. Known by several names -- Small Group Ministries, Covenant Groups or Chalice Circles -- the groups of 8 to 12 help bring people together on their individual spiritual journeys and facilitate significant and lasting relationships as our church grows.
Introduction to UUism
Periodically, our minister, Kent Matthies, offers a one or two session basic introduction to Unitarian Universalism.
Earth-Honoring Traditions
With chanting, drumming, dancing, poetry and ritual, we hold intergenerational celebrations honoring the cycles of nature through the year (such as the winter solstice) and our connection to our sacred world. We draw on the traditions of many cultures and times to foster healing relationships with our mother earth and all her children.
Articulating Your Faith
Building Your Own Theology
Writing Your Spiritual Autobiography
