Don't Miss Our Mother's Day Mimosa Fundraiser

We will be setting up a mimosa station in the assembly with complimentary mimosas for moms and donations/tips requested from everyone else with all funds going directly to Sunday Assembly SV after expenses are covered. Please bring cash and tip generously. (Non-alcoholic drinks will also be available at the mimosa station.)

For the first assembly in our new location, Andra Kaey, robot-evangelist and managing director of Silicon Valley Robotics, will be introducing the latest projects to come "Out of the Lab, and Into Our Lives." Our awesome house band will be leading us in some pop classics, singing some guilty pleasures.

How can we harness technology to help often?

Our guest speakers are Tyler Pew and Kate Ganim from KidMob. a mobile, kid-integrated design firm that holds workshops where kids build customized solutions to meet local needs. One of their more recent endeavors is Superhero Cyborgs, a workshop where kids—both with and without disabilities—design and build wearable devices that can serve as what KIDmob calls “a potential alternative to their upper limb prosthetics.”

A Secular Celebration

Planet Earth is tilting and winter solstice is here! Join us to bid farewell to the longest night of the year and welcome back the sun at an enchanting solstice celebration in Silicon Valley.

As candles are lit and extinguished, the revels will follow the rhythm of moving from darkness to light.

The evening Includes a no-host bar and reception, buffet dinner, secular ceremony filled with plenty of storytelling, singing, a raffle and dancing to close out the evening. The band, Robonzo's Bolero, will perform. We'll sing familiar favorites like "Here Comes the Sun" and "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" and new solstice songs written just for the occasion.

Eat, drink, and be merry! We are changing up for December... let's get to know each other and share some tasty food. Bring the whole family, wear your ugliest holiday sweater, and join us for a fabulous potluck. Bring 12 servings of a main dish, side dish, or a dessert (vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free are always appreciated). No time to cook? Pitch in with soft drinks, utensils, plates, or a package of napkins.
