Name: Young Adult Winter Solstice Soup Potluck 🍲🕯️
Start: 2025-12-21T20:30:00.000Z
Location: First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco (UUSF)

❇️ UUSF's annual Holiday Faire will feature a multicultural décor and a multicultural feast that celebrates winter light festivals around the world, in particular this year: Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Christmas, Yule, and Diwali. At this UUSF fundraiser, there will be lots to see and do—so let’s all go to the Faire! ❇️

🎶Our choir will usher you into the Faire with their heartfelt caroling, with holiday tunes played on the piano at the faire.

🍻☕ Our Holiday Bar will feature seasonal ale and wine, as well as a delicious hot chocolate bar with or without additions of your choosing.

🎁Need a unique gift for that special person? With 21 vendors, including Up On Top, your gift list will be smaller by the end of the day.

🍰 Visit the Victorian Tea Room, staffed by the children and youth of our church, and indulge in desserts made by our fine church bakers. It is an experience that should not be missed! And if you bring children, check out the games in the gallery with child-friendly food available.

🏆 Want to win a prize? Enter our Ugly Holiday Sweater or Best Holiday Costume Contest. Our raffle offers you a chance to bring home one of three beautiful gift baskets.

Join the 20s & 30s Spiritual Discussion Group for a time of spiritual reflection, sharing, and connection with peers.

In December we are exploring the theme ‘Choosing Hope’. We will use a range of sources, including literature, music, and art, as well as discussion questions, to enrich and guide our conversations, and close with a short meditation.

Email, Emma Wakeling, Membership and Young Adult Manager with any questions: ewakeling@uusf.org.

\*Many attendees don't register through MeetUp, so don't be discouraged if there are no other attendees listed here, we usually have a good group of people at each session!\*

UUSF 20s and 30s Community is the young adult body at UUSF.
Like many faith communities, UUSF skews older. To transform this fact, UUSF offers programming for young adults to connect with their peers and get their spiritual needs met. We also support young adults throughout the congregation; we show up everywhere, from the choir to the board!

Our programming and events are open to all aged 18-39, whether you are brand new to Unitarian Universalism or a longtime friend at UUSF.

Newcomers are welcome to join us after the service to meet some of our members and learn more about our congregation and Unitarian Universalism.

It's a great chance to meet other folks in the community, ask any questions you might have, and find out how to get involved in our programs and ministries. At this informal gathering, we each share a little about ourselves, hear about our members' experiences at UUSF, and share information about programming and events. We look forward to meeting you!

You are welcome to attend the service in the Sanctuary first, from 11:00AM - 12:15PM, or just join us for the orientation. We will meet in the Fireside Room - ask a member of the congregation, sexton, or staff member if you have trouble finding the room!

UUSF Young Adults Festive Crafting (with hot chocolate!)

[UUSF 20s & 30s Community Event](https://www.uusf.org/tnt)
Join us on the third Sunday of each month to enjoy lunch with fellow UUSF young adults!

Let us mark the Winter Solstice by enjoying steaming bowls of soup with friends to nourish our body and spirits. Emma will provide a vegan, GF soup to share. **Please bring sides such as bread, salads, desserts or snacks to accompany the soup.**

We will gather in the Fireside Room at 12:30pm after service for the potluck. If your dish needs to be refrigerated when you arrive at church, feel free to ask Emma or a sexton to show you to the kitchen fridge. Make sure you label your food before putting it in the fridge!

No registration is necessary; feel free to drop by. We encourage everyone to bring something to share, but usually have enough food to go around for folks who aren’t able to bring something.
