Welcome to Sunday Assembly Fort Worth
A Secular Assembly for Community, Fellowship, and Understanding
Sunday Assembly Fort Worth is a thriving secular community where individuals converge to engage in meaningful dialogue and collective action. Far from any religious affiliation, SAFW fosters a deep sense of fellowship rooted in shared humanism and a commitment to intellectual exploration. Members regularly gather for lively discussions on a wide range of philosophical topics, from ethics and epistemology to existentialism and the nature of consciousness. These conversations are not academic exercises in isolation, but rather a springboard for practical application, encouraging members to critically examine their own lives and their roles within the broader world. SAFW's unique blend of intellectual rigor and genuine camaraderie creates a welcoming space for individuals to connect on a deeper level, forming bonds that extend beyond superficial interests.
​
While steering clear of partisan politics, SAFW is certainly not apolitical. Instead, it embraces "light politics," focusing on the philosophical underpinnings of governance, social structures, and civil discourse. Members frequently analyze policy through the lens of justice, equality, and human rights, exploring the ethical implications of various societal issues without endorsing specific political parties or candidates. This approach allows for a more nuanced and open-minded examination of complex problems, encouraging members to develop their own informed perspectives based on reason and empathy. The emphasis is on understanding systemic challenges and fostering constructive dialogue about potential solutions, rather than engaging in divisive rhetoric.
​
At its core, SAFW is propelled by a fervent dedication to social justice. This commitment manifests in various forms, from organized community service projects to ongoing discussions about advocacy and systemic change. Members actively seek to understand and address inequalities, using their collective intellect and resources to support marginalized communities and champion human dignity. Whether through volunteering at local shelters, organizing educational workshops on social issues, or simply providing a supportive network for those striving for a more equitable world, SAFW embodies a proactive approach to making a positive impact. It demonstrates that a secular community can be a powerful force for good, driven by shared values of compassion, reason, and a profound belief in the inherent worth of every individual.
