The Peoria Secular Humanist Society is dedicated to the promotion of the philosophy that a belief in a of supernatural deity is not necessary to live a moral and fulfilling life. We hope to serve as an outreach and form of social support to members of the community who do not follow subscribe to a traditional religion.

We have regular meetings all of which are announced on meetup. During some meetings we have discussion groups involving current events or philosophical viewpoints while other times we will kick back and watch a movie. Feel free to attend any of our meetings as we love to get to know new people.

Updates with regards to completed meetings and other announcements will be posted as blog updates. Members who are unable to attend particular meetings should check here for decisions that were made or other takeaways.

Any inquiries can be directed here.

Thanks to everyone who came to donate blood today.  Look for the next blood donation meetup in a couple of months when we are eligible again.  This was a big week for us with the very informative lecture from Rob Boston from Americans United for the separation of church and state regarding religious freedom on Monday and our regular meetup discussion on Tuesday.

Moving forward, we will have a movie night next week and another discussion the following week.  We are still looking for more ways to help our community as well.  Check Meetup for details.

Coming up this week

Hey everybody, we have a lot going on this week!

On Monday, many of us are attending a lecture at Bradley University entitled "Religious Freedom:  What it is and what it is not" by Rob Boston from Americans united for the Separation of Church and State.

On Tuesday, we will have our regular group meeting at the Peoria Pizza Works at 7:00.  Maybe we will discuss the lecture from the day before or maybe we will find something else to talk about.

Saturday will be our trip to the American Red Cross to give blood.  We currently have 7 people signed up and there is still time to sign up before the reservations are made with the Red Cross.  RSVP's can be made on meetup or by emailing me at peoriasecularhumanists@gmail.com

So far 2013 has been a great year for us with several new members and successful meetups, let's keep the mojo going!
