The Tahoma UU Congregation Board of Trustees invites congregants to join in an all-hands discussion about how we engage members and friends in building community within our walls.

Come help move this part of our community's work forward! We're especially interested in convening members of the Program Advisory Council for Adult Religious Exploration, the Religious Exploration Committee for Children and Youth, and the Membership Committee. If you're curious, inspired, or ready to roll up your sleeves, please join us. All are welcome.

“A Year to Live” – Group at Capacity Group meets on Third Saturdays beginning March 19, 2016 What if you received a diagnosis that you [...]

We will be entering our seventh year of Third Sunday Sacred Scripture Study (formerly known as Bible Study) at TUUC this fall. In the previous six years, we have followed the Revised Common Lectionary, looking at the Bible readings according to the schedule followed by most Protestant churches. This year we are changing it up a bit. We will still follow the Revised Common Lectionary, but we will also integrate 3 additional sources. This year we have the option of looking at the Torah and Haftorah (some books from what you may know as the Old Testament) readings from an annual schedule used in the Jewish tradition. We will have readings from Hindu, Buddhist, and Taoist traditions, which have been selected to correspond nicely with the lectionary readings. And finally, as we enter into our second year of using the Soul Matters themes, each month’s theme is listed here so that we might consider incorporating it as we read through the selections.
