Welcome to our Religious Education Program

Providing a safe and welcoming faith development community for all children -  infants through senior high.

Children are nurtured in a faith that recognizes the inherent worth of all life and strives for a world of empathy, peace and justice. We encourage curiosity, as well as a creative response to life.  

Here we strive to create an environment that fosters a community between families,  RE teachers and the UUCS congregation.   

We look forward to meeting you and your family virtually at one of our online events or Religious Education Zoom.

  2021- 2022 Curriculum

  While our Church campus remains closed, we will resume our live Religious Education Zoom call for all ages each Sunday at 11:00 to 11:30am starting on August 15th.   We encourage all to join in the Church worship service starting at 10:45am where we will hold a Time for All Ages before joining in on the Zoom.  If you are not on our Religious Education email list, click here to get the RE Zoom link. 

Each Sunday we  light the chalice, and use stories, videos, art and games to support the lesson of the day. 
We have time for fellowship and support too. 

But mostly, WE HAVE LOTS OF FUN!
 

See our Calendar or Newsletter for lessons of the week and the upcoming lessons and events.

Our Religious Education Program offers the opportunity to be involved in:

  • Social Justice Projects
This year our children and youth will have opportunities to learn about and support racial justice, environmental justice and caring for our earth and all its inhabitants.  Past projects include volunteering at All Faiths Food Bank, making sandwiches for the homeless and fundraising for the UUSC refugee support programs.
  • Worship Services
This year's Children's Chapel will feature "Stories of our Elders" where an adult congregant will share their story about their religious education growing up and why they are a UU now.  Monthly the children participate in the Service in the Sanctuary either through hearing a story, telling a story, putting on a skit or singing a song. 
  • Art & Music Projects
Our elementary curriculums this year have with each class either a special art  or building project relating to the class theme.  During our children's chapel, the children will learn songs of our faith.  
  • Holiday & Special Event
Special programs and parties are planned for  holidays and seasonal events. Make sure to check out the RE calendar for upcoming events.
