Sunday Assembly Detroit is a secular congregation that meets to hear great talks and generally celebrate the wonder of life. It’s a service for anyone who wants to live better, help often, and wonder more.
This free event is in beautiful Farmington Hills. We'll listen to a talk then enjoying a meal during the event.
**Speakers**
We don't have clergy; instead, we have local community leaders and thinkers. This month Derrick Sebree Jr will give a talk titled "Advocacy as a humanistic pedagogy" which will cover, why humanistic advocacy matters in clinical education,
building community-centered learning environments, and
Practical leadership, policy, and training implications.
**Our Program**
1. Welcome and Gathering Statement
2. Quick agenda outline
3. Speaker and speech introduction
4. Speaker gives a talk
5. Dismissal for food
6. Everyone comes back to the table(s)
7. Brief toast/address, including some short recognition of "life happens" (ie. Birthdays, other news)
8. We dig in! Feel free to chat about whatever.
9. Cleanup and taking leftovers home
**Childcare**
Families with children are encouraged to attend! There is free childcare during the talk.
**Radically Inclusive**
We are a radically inclusive community and we welcome our LGBTQIA+ brothers, sisters, and siblings.
We also welcome everyone along the secular/religious spectrum. Whatever your degree of religion, spirituality, or utter lack thereof, you are welcome here. As an organization, we don't do religious, spiritual, or supernatural things, but we don't dwell on that -- rather, we focus on Humanism and its associated values.
