Interest Groups
We have many opportunities for social interaction at UUCF. You don’t need to be a member of our congregation to participate in any of our activities. Click on the group name that interests you and you will see a brief description of that group.

| The All Souls Potluck begins at 5:30 pm with the Salon Discussion following at 6:30 pm. This group meets on the fourth Tuesday of every month in the social hall. Bring a dish (no pork or shellfish please) and enjoy the potluck. Can’t get there that early? No problem. All are welcome, even if just for the discussion part of the evening.
