Regular Gathering Programs

Fun and Fellowship through weekly and monthly gatherings.

  • Alliance

    Purpose:  The Alliance gathers monthly to foster community and share knowledge through an informative program, followed by a potluck luncheon for fellowship.  Program topics have included author presentations, travel experiences, music demonstrations, and historical commentary.   Additionally, the Alliance holds a yearly fundraiser book sale to raise funds for various projects that support our church and its mission.

  • Garden Group

    Purpose:  The TVUUC Garden Group is a multi-generational Fellowship Group that connects members and friends of the church who have interests in gardening. Monthly meetings include a potluck brunch, and topics can include discussion, workshops, field trips, videos, and hands-on activities. 

  • Laughter Is Good for the Soul

    Purpose:  Laughter fosters joy and connection through laughter, sharing uplifting experiences that nourish the soul. By cultivating fellowship, engaging conversations, and a joyful atmosphere filled with jokes and delicious food, we aim to create a vibrant community centered around what makes us feel good.

  • First Sunday Lunch

    Purpose:  The purpose of the First Sunday Lunch is to foster a welcoming environment for community members to gather for food, fun, and fellowship on the first Sunday of each month. By hosting a potluck lunch sponsored by a TVUUC program, we aim to create opportunities for individuals to meet new people, connect with friends, and learn more about TVUUC initiatives, all while enjoying delicious food together.

  • Science Fiction Club

    Purpose:  The Science Fiction Club meets monthly to explore humanity and culture through the lens of science fiction films. This genre uniquely examines people's realities, dreams, and fears through projection, exaggeration, and imagination. During each meeting, the group watches a film and then engages in a supportive discussion to consider the questions it raises, aiming for a deeper understanding of ourselves, each other, and the culture that surrounds us. We also enjoy watching Marvin the Martian!

  • Sing Out!

    Purpose:  Sing Out! fosters a welcoming and inclusive environment where individuals can come together once a month to enjoy making music. We encourage participants of all skill levels to join in singing and playing instruments, using the provided songbook, Rise Up Singing, to enhance our shared musical experience. No prior singing experience is required, and everyone is invited to express themselves through music and community.

  • Wednesday Afternoon Gaming

    Purpose:  The Wednesday Gaming Group fosters a sense of fun and fellowship among members through engaging and enjoyable gaming experiences.

  • Women's Table

    Purpose:  Women’s Table creates a welcoming space for members and friends who identify as female to gather, connect, and foster relationships through monthly dinner meetings at various restaurants.
