Humanist Community Sundays

Our Sunday Forums (map, directions) usually feature a local or nationally-known luminary (authors, professors, activists...) who will stimulate your mind with a timely thesis. Self-improvement, participation, interaction programs are also scheduled; see Forums. They start at 11:00 a.m.

Simultaneously we have a Family Program (often called a Sunday School but not focused on teaching any belief but universally-held ethics) where members’ and visitors’ children are engaged in positive activities while their parents are attending the Forum.

Be sure to stay for lunch, where lively discussion tops the menu. You can partake of a buffet or bring your own lunch from home or from local restaurants.

After lunch, work off some calories with the hardy Humanist hikers, or join some other seasonal activity.
