Our congregation's diversity of backgrounds and interests assures leadership for our wide-ranging adult programs. The programs, held on weekday evenings, are open to the entire community. Past adult programs have included a botanist and a civil engineer leading a three-part series on science and religion; a seminar on sustainable economics, led by a professor in that field; and several series based on curriculums developed through the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations (UUA). One of these, "Building Your Own Theology," helped participants find their own spiritual meanings in life without the restrictions of a particular creed. Another, "Journey Toward Wholeness," was an inquiry into how we are divided by racial and economic differences and what responses we can make to these realities. “Is there Unity in Diversity?" explored the theological differences represented in a typical UU congregation. “Spirit of Life” workshops emphasized spiritual growth and depth rather than specific practices; the final session will be February 20 at 7 pm.

Ongoing Adult Programs

• Sharing Circles
  Sharing Circles provide opportunities for UUCSF members and friends to gather for ongoing sharing and listening on subjects that are spiritual, religious or humanistic in nature. Groups of 8-10 people meet monthly to exchange thoughts on a chosen topic in an environment of mutual respect for different points of view, and support for continuing exploration of our individual spiritual journeys.
  
• QiGong
  QiGong, a meditative spiritual practice with movement elements similar to Tai Chi, is offered the second Sunday of every month following our regular worship service. No prior experience is necessary. For more information, contact Pat Gorman, 631-537-8163.

Our Unitarian Universalist Story is a five-session exploration of our religious identity as Unitarian Universalists that begins on March 7 at noon. The program includes readings, group discussions, and activities that focus on the heritage of Unitarian Universalism, personal religious values, individual experiences, and current theological issues and trends. Our minister, Alison Cornish, will lead the course. All are welcome, including those in the larger community who are curious about our faith tradition. Call 631-537-0132 to sign up.
