High Hopes 4 Kids

HistoryTwo comedians, Pippa Evans and Sanderson Jones were on their way to a gig in a car (VW Polo, if you like detail) when they started talking about the idea of a church without God. Pippa had been a Christian and found, when she stopped believing, she missed church (community, volunteering, music) rather than God and Sanderson had noticed the joy at Christmas created by carol concerts and wondered if it was possible to harness all those good bits to celebrate the awesome fact that we are alive. And so they decided if they had both thought of it, probably more people had thought of it, so they should just get on and do it. In January of 2013 they did just that. Over 200 people turned up to the first event and since then and more turn up every fortnight in London. A year later, after seeing successful Sunday Assemblies throughout the United States -- especially in California -- local volunteers to plan and create our very own Sunday Assembly Sacramento. We launched in September 2014.SpecialtiesThe Sunday Assembly is a secular congregation that celebrates life. Our monthly events are generally 75 minutes filled with music (80s and 90s pop hits), inspirational talks, poetry and art, donuts and coffee, and more... followed by a potluck! We are radically inclusive - everyone is welcome, regardless of their beliefs (or lack thereof), their sexual orientation, their age, gender, or politics. Our events are free for all to attend, though donations are appreciated. We do not accept sponsorships. Childcare is provided. Our Motto: To live better, help often, and wonder more.
