Covenant
Groups: Interested
in making connections within the UU Fellowship of
Waco? One of the easiest and most interesting ways
to do that is to join a Covenant Group. Our Covenant
Groups are formed around topics, but the reason we
get together is to strenghthen our ties to the Fellowship
by making personal connections with other UUs. The
settings are casual and the number of people in the
groups is intentionally small so that one can easily
get to know everyone.
• Let's
Go to the Movies
Old favorites, the greatest
films made, the newest films to hit the stores. These
are the movies this group watches, each member in
turn choosing and bringing the "movie of the
month." The viewing is followed by a lively
discussion of actors, plot, directors or whatever.
Meets on 3rd Wednesday of
each month at 7pm in members' homes.
Contact John Nobis at 756.4653 or jnobis@grandecom.net, or
Kay Wilson at rgkhwilson@sbcglobal.net

Spiritual Pathways
Personal conversations
about the roads we have taken in our spiritual lives.
Meets 3rd Tuesday at 7pm.
Contact Bruce Allen at 776.3036 or allenbw2@sbc.global.net
• HUUmanists
R Us?
A light-hearted title, but serious conversations.

and explores spiritual issues from a humanist perspective.

and a fun time. We have well over 100 (probably closer
