February Children & Youth Religious Education Winter Program

My UU Identity, Values & Beliefs
In the fall, the religious education program focused on who we are as a UU community.  Who is our community? Who are we as a congregation? In January, we began exploring how this community helps us shape our identities, values and beliefs – and how to live them out.

Winter Block 2 begins February 10:
Junior and Senior Children’s Circle January focus: Not Fair! What is fair?
Age 4 to 2nd grade in UL303, and 3rd – 5th grade in UL302

Secondary Lodestone Program: Racism – Unfairness at the Societal Level
Grades 6th – 10th in UL103

Coming of Age Program – 8th-10th grades 
(Starting February 17 After the Service, Location to be determined with youth & mentors)
We will be holding a Coming of Age program starting February 17 after the service.  The program will meet every other week for a total of 6 sessions.   Each teen will be matched with an adult mentor who will attend the luncheon program with them.  The program will also have a few sessions external to the luncheons and will close with a Coming of Age ceremony and a Coming of Age journey.  The location will be selected with the teens, mentors and their families.  Traditionally in UU congregations the journey might be to General Assembly or Boston where the UUA is headquartered.  The trip is optional for mentors.  We are currently recruiting mentors and other supporting volunteers.  If you are interested, contact the Director of Religious Education, Heather Cleland-Host at [email protected].
