SUMMARY:Young Adults at the Oxford Taproom
DESCRIPTION:We have enough interest to launch a young adult group. Game on. \nI (Ben) personally found a UU young adult group to be life-changing. Open-minded\, open-hearted community where you can be accepted for who you are and have meaningful conversations about life. Sometimes it’s about imagining the world of our dreams and taking action\, sometimes it’s simply hanging out with people who get you. \nIt’ll mostly be informal\, and we can talk about what you’d like to do this winter/spring – perhaps informal gatherings or themed discussions. \nI’m appreciating the energy – let’s ignite a group. \nThe Oxford Taproom is at 6418 Quinpool Rd. As you enter\, the cafe counter is on the left and seating is on the right. I’ll have a UU sign.

Stay afterwards for a tea blend and a discussion of UU parenting. Babysitting is available.
