Community Song Circles

Usually first and third Fridays at 4pm at HUUF, with occasional scheduling changes. To stay up-to-date about any scheduling changes, email connect@huuf.org to get on the song circle-specific email list.

“Group singing is a powerful catalyst for social change and community building. We sing for the joy of creating something beautiful together in the moment.” Maggie McKnight

Community song circles welcome all voices, bringing together people who love to sing, regardless of experience level. Song circles don’t focus on performing for an audience; instead, learn songs from a variety of traditions by call-and-response, and sing for the joy of creating something beautiful together in the moment. Group singing is a powerful way of connecting with each other, and with something deep within ourselves—and the music we make as we support each other through song call forth the singing voice that is every human’s birthright. Led by Maggie McKnight

Burritos & Blessings

4:30-6 PM Every first Friday of the month at HUUF

Help us make food for our unhoused community members. As part of our ongoing partnership with McKinleyville’s Church of the Joyful Healer. Each Saturday, they offer a warm meal, bag lunch, hot coffee, and a place to get warm for folks experiencing homelessness. Join us as we make sandwiches and a yummy tray of burritos as part of this important community ministry.

Come early (at 4:00) and join in the singalong fun happening in the HUUF Sanctuary with Maggie McKnight. We’d love to have you there. For more information, contact Tiffany at  connect@huuf.org

Soul Matters Sharing Circle 

Soul Matters is a small group experience created for Unitarian Universalist congregations that includes spiritual exercises, inspirational readings and questions that encourage reflection on daily living that helps participants explore monthly themes in more depth.

7-8:30 Every second Wednesday of the month in the HUUF Care Building, facilitated by Margy Emerson.

6:30-8:30 PM Art Matters: every month (Wednesday/exact date TBD, check the online calendar) at HUUF, facilitated by Amy Day and Bridgette Garuti. This monthly offering incorporates DIY art along with the regular discussion. Donations are appreciated for the materials provided.

No long-term commitment is necessary to engage here.  Come as you are and when you can. We welcome you.

Chalice Dinners

Many early spiritual and religious traditions emerged from simply breaking bread together – being in one another’s company and sharing conversation about the type of world we wish to live in and build collectively.

These groups form based on geography, so you can create mutual aid community in your neighborhoods. Groups commit to meeting at least six times with each other. Sign up by here
