UUtopia Report – Zyzzy

  • Nothing Happened

Outreach – Et

  • All online UUA General Assembly June 24-28. Normal end-of-month meeting is 6/25 Should we move it? Should we plan on Zoom-sharing (or Google Meet — it’s still free for now) the Thursday service? If attending, download the UUA GA App on your smart phone.
  • Next LG meeting 6/18 (see below)

Library Report – Bel

  • I’ve been supporting the library mainly from donations. The 15,000L the LG gave LuvWorldReligions is still there. I tried to get a book club going but that has not gone far. I’m now working on another area for people to link to information online they are hosting or know of that is of interest. The sky area is basically done. There is also a meditation area up there. It is in the teleport system.

Poll – Zoe

  • Zoe to poll the larger group for alternative service times. (Poll open, 21 respondents; so far half strongly yes, quarter somewhat yes. Saturday morning is popular. Lots of interest in attending, less so leading) Survey results at
  • Poll Analysis available from Zoe. The skinny: “My reading is that the survey suggests that it may be worthwhile trying a second weekly service. If a second weekly service is added, it should be added at 10:30am SLT on Saturdays. This is not only the most popular alternative overall, but the one most popular with those who express most interest in attending and possibly leading services, and those for whom virtual services are the only ones they can attend.”
  • Suggest we announce Thursday that a meeting will be held 10:30 am for those interested in attending. Also SL group announcement and Facebook. Sofia to shepherd this week.

New Business

  • (tabled this month) Circle Groups: Should we consider adding them? The suggestion was made by one survey respondent. (And what’s the diff between Circle Groups, Covenant Groups, and Chalice Circles?)

The meeting was adjourned at 6:24 pm SLT

Next meeting June 18th (moved/2nd/approved)
