Every month, September through June, UUCF explores a different theme – in worship, small groups and in our Family Ministry and Soul Circles small groups. Many readings, exploration topics, quotes, music, and other resources come from Soul Matters Sharing Circle, a group of more than 130 Unitarian Universalist congregations sharing the same monthly worship themes and worship and religious education theme resources. Each month’s resources are updated about 4-6 weeks in advance. Click on the monthly links below to see the full packet of information from Soul Matters.
