Children's RE Unitarian Universalists view religious development as a journey every individual makes. This church is an affirming and challenging environment, which supports its members in their personal lifelong odysseys. Our Lifespan Religious Exploration program begins by providing nurturing, loving care in our nursery. The Children’s Program explores various topics, including world religions and the application of Unitarian Universalist principles to everyday life. Members of our Youth Group create their own program. We also offer a wide variety of educational and spiritually enriching opportunities for adults.

Each RE year, the children's Religious Exploration Program focuses on one of three themes: Unitarian Universalism, world religions, or the Hebrew and Christian Bibles. Whatever the year's theme may be, the program assists children in building an understanding of themselves, their place in the world, and the Unitarian Universalist principles. In addition, all ages are offered opportunities for worship, social action projects, and fellowship.

2007-2008 Children's Religious Exploration PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 03 January 2008

There is only one secret ingredient that makes RE successful: your presence.  Please bring your children regularly, talk to them frequently about what is going on in RE, and volunteer your time and talent when asked.  We currently offer four class levels designed to best serve the developmental needs of our children.

The Explorers (0-4 years) get to know their peers and some of the caring adults in the church, in a safe, loving and nurturing environment. Please sign your child in each week.

Super Heroes (grades K-3) are introduced to people in the Hebrew and Christian Bibles who displayed courage and wisdom. The students explore how the lives of these people confirm the values Unitarian Universalists strive to promote.  The class also encourages children to use their own positive “super powers” as they grow spiritually and ethically.

Adventurers (grades 4-7) gain familiarity with stories from many religious traditions, with an emphasis on the Hebrew and Christian Bibles. The class reinforces the UU living traditions, promotes appreciation of the student's own religious heritage and provides perspective in evaluating religious claims.

The Youth Group (grades 8-12) integrates the five components of a successful youth program to create their own dynamic group. The components are worship, leadership, learning, social action and fellowship.


If you have questions about the Religious Exploration program, don't hesitate to ask our director,  Linda Weaver .
