Campus Ministry
Indiana Unitarian Universalist Campus Ministry (IUUCM) is the campus ministry group of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Bloomington. We are open to all members of the campus community, but are especially focused on the needs of students. We meet to worship, talk about the issues that concern us, and have fun. If you are an IU student and Unitarian Universalism is something you are interested in, or are just plain curious about, come check us out.
We have been busy lately -- going on camping trips, having game nights, and having an overnight at church, which included worship with Reverend Mary Ann Macklin.
This Fall, we are meeting THURSDAYS 7-8 PM in Ballantine 004 (next to the spinning globe) for informal worship and conversation. Our worship takes many forms, from conversation to crafts to music to meditation. Once a month, one of our ministers will join us. Please come visit with us!
We also meet with once a month for a brown bag lunch with members of the Campus Ministry committee. Join us September 23 for lunch with Paul Losensky, Campus Ministry chair and Professor of Comp Lit and Central Eurasian Studies! Join us in the Cyber Cafe in the basement of the Wells Library! (Check our Listserv below for more dates.)
You can also join us the SECOND AND FOURTH SUNDAYS of every month for lunch. We gather for a meal at vegetarian-friendly local restaurants. Meet us at the courtyard entrance after second service, or check Facebook for location details.
An important part of our UU experience is in giving back to our communities. Last year over spring break, a couple of group members went down to New Orleans and volunteered through the First UU New Orleans to help with rebuilding. We plan to make a similar trip again soon! We also try to contribute to our local community -- so far this year, we have adopted a trail at Griffy Lake, and volunteered at the Habitat Interfaith Build.
Keep in touch for updates concerning our service projects, social events, and worships!
