Please consider joining us for one of our RE classes. We have a nursery with two babysitters each week for young children and infants as well as a Religious Exploration class for children. We are a small but mighty group and welcome all newcomers. If your children are older, we have a youth group that meets twice monthly on Sunday evenings. All our children this year are “Building Bears of Wholeness” and collecting badges that support our values. There are always new bears for newcomers no matter the age or how long they join us!
Religious Exploration Classes
The children collected their first “I am” badge and reviewed the meaning of “threshold” and being welcoming. Additional badges will be offered every other week to ensure the children obtain the 16 badges for the lessons they had this year. They are inserting the badges into their build-a-bears. Next month we will be talking about legacies and some of our Unitarian Universalist heroes.
Nursery During the Worship Service
Nursery is still being led by Niko Pucillo-Dunphy, who receives support from Jesse Hoyle as the second in charge. We have two toddlers and are always ready to welcome more young children/infants if they are interested in joining us on a Sunday morning.
Our Whole Lives
OWL has 3 – 5 youths and is going very well. We had our panel on February 4 and class again on February 11. The group has changed its meeting dates this month to March 3 and March 17 to accommodate schedules. This is a closed group that will be offered again in a couple of years for youth in 7th– 9th grades.
