Happenings + Events
Our events are a time for students and young adults to come together and relax with others who share our faith. Anyone is welcome to come out and join us for a few minutes or a couple hours, whatever your schedule allows. And as a bonus most of our events are accompanied by a hot meal!
EVENTS
Weekly and monthly events cycle through a handful of core activities with other special events occurring throughout the year. For an up-to-date schedule of events take a look at our weekly newsletter.
All students and young adults are invited to go out with us for coffee and conversation after worship on the second Sunday of the month.
We hope you can join us Thursday, August 20th for our next Confessions at the Creamery! Join as we gather around a sweet treat to talk about what we believe and why at matters at such a time as this. Drawing its name from one of the foundational documents of our tradition (the Augsburg Confession), this gathering is envisioned as a sober alternative to Pub Theology, this month meeting at Van Leeuwen Ice Cream at 3631 Walnut Street, just a few blocks south of UniLu. RSVP by texting or emailing Pastor Meagan.
Students are invited to join us for our annual neighborhood Progressive Faith, Progressive Dinner Wednesday, September 2nd at 6pm, beginning with appetizers at St. Mary's, dinner at the CA & TAB, and ending with dessert at UniLu! Young adults are welcome, too! RSVP by texting or emailing Pastor Meagan!
Mark your calendars and save the date! Night Church will be back Sunday, September 6th at 5pm right here at UniLu! Join us for this contemplative, musical service, followed by a simple soup supper. We'll gather October 4th at Tabernacle United, November 1st at St. Mary's, and December 6th at the Philadelphia Episcopal Cathedral.
On Sunday, September 13th, we'll celebrate our annual Welcome Back Worship with a blessing of backpacks, followed by a potluck picnic! All are invited to bring a dish to share as we welcome new and returning students and folks away for the summer break.
This year for 'God's Work. Our hands.' we're heading back to Books Through Bars right here in West Philadelphia alongside the Christian Association, preparing books to send to folks who have been incarcerated. Click here to learn more about this great organization, and contact Pastor Meagan to sign up to serve that Saturday. We need to bring at least ten people to qualify as a group, so sign up today!
After church, enjoy a chance to get out in nature, right here in the City of Philadelphia! Contact Pastor Meagan for more information or to sign up.
