Popcorn Theology is a fun and engaging multigenerational program built around popular movies that have spiritual or ethical relevance. We watch the movie together, and then after the movie we engage in discussion around the movie’s themes and how they relate to our UU faith.
Movies start at 6 p.m. in Fellowship Hall with discussion immediately following the movie. We provide freshly popped popcorn and a variety of drinks. We’ll have folding chairs available for seating, but you can also bring your favorite lawn chair or other comfy seats. Feel free to bring dinner or any other snacks or food.
If you are interested in being a part of these and future movie nights, register here!
