Everyone at UU Wellesley Hills loves to connect over good food and lively conversation. Our friends and members can cross paths in a variety of ways. Each Sunday, immediately after our worship service, we gather for Fellowship Hour from 11:30-12:30 in Parish Hall. If the weather is warm, we may hold it outside in our church courtyard. Drinks and snacks are provided so that people can always linger and talk.
We hold community-wide Potlucks Meals a few times a year, often at the start of the program year, over the December holidays, and during our annual Stewardship Campaign. We completely deserve the reputation we’ve earned for having amazing potlucks! Diners bring specialty dishes, healthy offerings, and delicious desserts. Visitors are always warmly welcomed.
A couple of times a year, we recruit UU Wellesley Hills members to host cozy Circle Suppers with 6 to 10 guests gathering in their homes. The hosts provide the main course, but guests supply the rest of the meal. These more intimate gatherings provided people a good opportunity to forge deeper connections.
Our seasonal “Soup With Friends” brings our elder members together for a brief reflection in the Chapel a before a nice sit-down luncheon and some special time to catch up with old friends. These meals are organized by the Caring Community; the minister leads the Chapel time.
