It's our 7th birthday and the perfect excuse for baking yourself a cake to celebrate!

Our guest speakers, Maia and Greg Coladonato, want to fix something that's broken: our tendency to throw things away when they break, leading to overflowing landfills and lost treasures. At Repair Cafe Mountain View, passionate fixers connect with forlorn owners of broken valuables to change the world one part at a time.

We'll be singing:
Thank You for Being a Friend - Andrew Gold
Kind & Generous - Natalie Merchant
Go Your Own Way - Fleetwood Mac

Join us for a great talk with Bill Schroh, Jr., President & CEO of History San Jose! With our rich history, too many marginalized voices have been kept silent. Both the good and the bad must be captured for the future in order to understand the past.

Join us online, Sunday, 9/13 at 11am. Our speaker will be Randy Lioz from Braver Angels. Randy has made it his life’s work to depolarize conversations we have surrounding politics. Too often we demonize and dehumanize those we don’t agree with about politics, but what if we emphasize curiosity, and even building relationships? Can we actually be more effective advocates for our deeply held beliefs if we hold off on expressing them? Let’s find out!

We will meet on Zoom and have breakout room mingling at 10:30 am, assembly at 11:00 am, and more mingling at noon.

Community is why we come together at Sunday Assembly. We hope you can join us, Sunday, August 9th for inspiring speakers and fun singalongs.

Our guest speaker, Chuck Blair, will talk with us about the Oasis community which, like Sunday Assembly, is both secular and inclusive. Chuck will share with us Oasis' core values and how they practice them. Please see the Oasis website and Facebook group.

"Help! A bird struck my window . . . there's a baby squirrel at my doorstep . . . now what?" Our guest speaker, Stephanie Ellis, has an enormous wealth of knowledge and passion for avian rehabilitation and conservation on both coasts. Currently, she is the executive director of Wild Care, Inc., a nonprofit wildlife hospital dedicated to the rescue and release of injured and orphaned wildlife on Cape Cod. She is also well known in Silicon Valley for all her work with birds and other wildlife in this area.

Alex R. will be hosting!

Let's get inspired! Please join us online on Sunday, June 14th. We’ll have an enlightening guest speaker, fun singalongs with our band, a reading by Lisa, Doing Your Best by Ben, and a Moment of Reflection.

For our May online event, we’re teaming up with other California Sunday Assemblies!

Star Trek, one of the world’s most successful and beloved television series is uniquely concerned with ethics. Many of its episodes directly address questions of right and wrong, exploring ethical questions in a science fiction setting. In this presentation, philosopher and Ethical Society Outreach Director James Croft, Ed.D., explores how the show inspires us to live better, help often, and wonder more as we “live long and prosper."

How are Sunday Assembly chapters recognizing Earth Day? SA Atlanta recently uploaded their Climate Change themed April 2019 Assembly. Dr. Kim Cobb, climate scientist and professor from Georgia Tech was the speaker for her third time! She discussed how Climate Change applies to so much more than global temperature: our political climate is hostile to solutions, and our social climate is fragmented and disillusioned.

You are invited to attend our first ever virtual Assembly on April 12! We’ll start the video meeting at 10:45 AM and begin our program at 11:00.

Expect a more-or-less typical Assembly that will be online instead of at the lodge. We’ll have singing, a reading, a guest speaker segment, Doing Your Best, and a moment of reflection.
