Adult Programs

Programs for adults give us the chance to go deeper— intellectually, socially, ethically, and spiritually. From workshops to community service, to discussion groups, meditation to marching—all in the context of a supportive spiritual community—Unitarian Universalism has much to offer adults beyond our Sunday services.  Look here for a more comprehensive list of our groups that meet regularly.

“Come, come, whoever you are, wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving…”

The Spirituality of Gratitude

Exploring Spirituality Group, 2nd & 4th Wednesdays in the Library, 7-8:30pm

Come with questions rather than answers.  It will be both faith-friendly and no-faith friendly. All are invited to join us with open minds and hearts. We only ask that participants come with a spirit of curiosity, wisdom, and compassion…and sense of humor too.  Text Rebecca Drennan at 415-377-1791 with any questions.

UUCC has Two Story Circles Gathering now.

UUCC are meeting:

· 2-3pm every Tuesday at the UUCC Library

· 11-noon every Friday via Zoom

Unfortunately, both of these circles are filled.

The formation of a new and additional Story Circle is in process to accommodate recent interest in joining a Story Circle. Information will be forthcoming when details are finalized for this new Story Circle.  Please contact Phil Turner  with questions.

We affirm a free and responsible search for truth and meaning from birth to death. Unitarian Universalism celebrates the ways that our needs, our hopes, and our beliefs change as life changes us.


Adult RE (Religious Exploration)

Our Mission

Our Adult Religious Education Program strives to support each person’s search for truth and meaning through intellectual and spiritual growth in an environment of respect and trust where each person is known and valued for who they are.

UUCC Book Club

Our Curriculum

We offer opportunities for adults from the UUCC congregation and the church’s wider community to grow intellectually and spiritually through faith development, faith in action, spiritual practice, and personal growth.

  • Faith development includes opportunities to develop personal understanding of truth and meaning by exploring theology, ethics, religion, humanism, Unitarian Universalism’s seven principles, and Unitarian Universalist history.
  • Faith in action provides intellectual and spiritual foundations, through the lenses of the seven UU principles, personal faith, and the congregation’s mission, for understanding social and environmental justice challenges and for initiating individual and collective action.
  • Spiritual practice programs support development of personal and communal spiritual disciplines and practices that help individuals connect with the ground of their being, however they understand it.
  • Personal growth programs provide education and group support for meeting the challenges of life and for recognizing and developing each person’s gifts, and discovering ways for sharing those gifts with the congregation and the community.
