In keeping with our quest for spiritual growth, shared experiences and finding meaning, we offer on-going programs for adults and special programs we call Wonder and Inquiry.

Once a month, participants gather in small groups to further our understanding of, and relation to, the theme of the month.
To aid reflection and sharing, a packet of readings, queries, and practices exploring the theme is sent to participants beforehand. Together in the circle of community, we share and listen attentively, deepening our connection with ourselves and each other.
This year, a drop-in Journey Circle is meeting in person on the first Tuesday of each month, from 3:30 - 5:30 pm at 775 Weller Street in Peterborough. Other closed Journey Circles meet at regular times chosen by each circle.
To indicate your interest joining a closed circle, or to receive the packet before attending the drop-in group, please email Rev. Peter Boullata

The Non-Fiction Book Club welcomes all to join us for discussion of books with spiritual and social content that are aligned with Unitarian values. We meet on the second and fourth Thursdays of the month at 2pm via Zoom. For April, we will be reading The Beginning Comes After the End by Rebecca Solnit.
Solnit offers a thrilling account of the sheer breadth and scale of social, political, scientific, and cultural change over the past three quarters of a century. In this sequel to her enduring bestseller, Hope in the Dark, Solnit surveys a world that has changed dramatically since the year 1960.
Despite the forces seeking to turn back the clock on history, change is not a possibility; it is an inevitability. The changes amount to nothing less than dismantling an old civilization and building a new one, whose newness is often the return of the old ways and wisdoms. In this rising worldview, interconnection is a core idea and value.

The Women's Circle is about “women supporting women” through conversation that involves:
* sharing information
* celebrating our achievements
* providing emotional support
* offering practical help where possible
* building a collective strength and
* working towards positive change.
Women of ‘all ages' are welcome.
We meet, virtually, the 3rd Wednesday of the month, from 1.45pm to 3.15pm

On the second Sunday of the month, the Connections Team provides an opportunity for searchers and explorers to ask questions and learn more about our community. We usually gather in the small classroom on the ground floor after the service (around 11:30am).

We offer a two-session course, approximately twice a year, to those who are interested in learning more about this community and about Unitarian Universalist history, faith, and practice. This course is strongly suggested for those who want to become members of this community.

Mapmaking is a three-session workshop for newer members, a space to explore your values, discover Unitarian Universalism as a way of life, and connect your unique gifts with the life of the congregation. Come curious; leave with a clearer sense of belonging and purpose.

Members and friends meet at 775 Weller Street every Tuesday at 4:00pm to meditate together.
We sit for thirty minutes of silent meditation followed by some conversation. This is a drop-in group, open to all whether you’re new to meditation or a long-time meditator.
