Children's RE

We are pleased to welcome you and your children to our Religious Education Program. The curriculum selections are based upon research on the UUA website, and feedback from UUA religious educators across the country. For those interested in learning more about the religious education materials available through the UUA, we highly recommend a visit to the UUA Religious Education website. Families and individuals will find resources to continue and extend their personal religious education.

Welcome to the new RE year!

Nursery

Childcare is available during both Sunday services for infants and children up to 3 years old.  The nursery staff includes an experienced adult caregiver and volunteer assistant.  Our goal is to provide a consistent and loving environment for young children while their parents attend the service.

Explorers (Preschool to first grade)

Nurtures children's spiritual and religious growth through ritual, sharing times, crafts, games and stories.  Themes include the worth of each person, playing cooperatively, expressing feelings, celebrating human diversity and feeling a part of the UU community. 

Mavericks (Grades 2-4)

Introduces children to the seven UU principles and explores values, beliefs and what it means to be Unitarian Universalist.  Children address familiar conflicts and learn about their class as a community.  Themes include diversity in human relationships, making peace, spirituality, as well as creation, God and death.
