Building a loving, diverse, caring community

Small Groups

Small Groups gather for service, support, reflection, and connection.


Covenant Groups

A Covenant Group is a group of people who covenant (promise) that they will meet over the year ahead (8 – 10 monthly meetings)  and explore personal and spiritual themes drawn from either our worship themes or topics available through the UU Small Group Ministry Network. The meetings have a format guided by the group covenant and a facilitator who leads both dialogue and the deep listening. We currently have two covenant groups. For more information or to join, email our daytime group facilitator, Denise Dittmar, or our evening group facilitator, Mary Matheny.

Writers ClubWriters Group

Writers Group- a place to meet fellow writers and share your work at UUCS

We have been meeting for several years to provide a place for writers to share their writing and gain support and critiques.  The work by members of the group has included: fiction, poetry, memoir or true story, essays, fables, comedy, and self-help. Writers Group had its origin from a previous small group that explored “Writing the Story of Your Life” by Dan Wakefield.

In addition to reading aloud and discussing individual writings done at home, the group will often have a brief writing exercise about an agreed topic that can be written during the meeting and shared.  Sometimes the topics are chosen ahead of time and read during the meeting.

The group also has explored a topic for a group sermon as both  writers and readers. This has included the topic of spirituality and Soul Matters themes.

The group meets the 1st Monday of the month at 6:30 pm on Zoom, and new members are always welcome.

For more information contact Denise Dittmar.
