Interest Groups
We are diverse group with many varied interests. To build community around these varied interests, the congregation developed Interest Groups. Anyone in the congregation can start a group if enough others show similar passions. That also means as participation wanes, these groups dissolve. Therefore, this is an evolving, changing part of UUVC.
Below is a list and description of the current Interest Groups.
Fourth Friday Film Fest:
A full length movie is shown on the 4th Friday of each month at 7:00 pm in the Community Hall. The name of the movie, as well as information about it, is included in the UUVC monthly Newsletter. Pamper yourself and come enjoy a movie with us.
Coordinator is Cloe Bayer.

Mah Jongg:
The group meets on Mondays from 1:00 pm. All skill levels are welcome. If you are interested in learning the game, let us know. It's best to call before coming just to make sure we are playing and to plan for mah jongg sets and tables.

Dining In/Dining Out:
We are planning another round of our “Dinners” series for this coming Fall. There are two groups: Dining In: dining one evening per month in the home of a UUVC member or friend from your group; Dining Out: dining once a month at a restaurant. One of our goals is to meet the newer members and friends from our UUVC family in these more intimate social gatherings. If you are a newer member or friend we particularly want you join us this coming session. Fun and friendship is the goal.
Reminder: members and friends from the last round of "Dinners" must sign up again if you wish to continue to participate as your names will not carry over without your permission.
Coordinator is Janine Bethscheider.

Sleeping Mats:
The Plarn Sleeping Mats Group meets the 1st and 3rd Wednesday from 9-11a.m. in the Community Hall. We provide sleeping mats, made from re-cycled plastic bags, for the homeless in Garland County. Crocheters are always needed. However, anyone can do other steps in the process. Please give this worthy cause your consideration.
