Keweenaw Unitarian Universalist Fellowship

New to UU session on July 26th in the BHK conference room at 1 pm. If you will need childcare, please let Sydney or Laurie know asap.  This small group seminar with the minister will cover some history of the UU denomination and our "heretical faith" along with sharing, as participants wish, of their own spiritual path. There is plenty of time for questions and everyone is welcome, especially those who are new to UU or our congregation. Feel free to invite any guests you think would be interested in knowing more about us.

Our Mission...

COVENANT GROUP meets on first Sundays at BHK. 

Meditation: Every Friday at noon  we gather for meditation instruction and practice at the KUUF Office (the  E.L. Wright Building on 41 in Hancock adjacent to Pat's Foods mall). A short reading is followed by a period of simple silent meditation. Then we talk a bit, end by 12:50, and return to our day refreshed. All are welcome!

On Potluck Sundays, if possible, bring your own eating utensils to avoid using disposable ones. Wash them at home with your next meal’s dishes. If you choose to use the reusable plastic dishes provided by the Fellowship, please wash them yourself in the kitchen to reduce the dish washing chore of the hospitality team.
