Children’s Religious Exploration for kids aged 5 to 11 is led by Stephanie Bentley (stephmacbentley@gmail.com).
Youth Religious Exploration for youth aged 12 to 18 is led by Leanda Gavin (lmshelby@gmail.com) and Ruth Parcells (Rp918grl@gmail.com).
Both happen every Sunday from 10 to 11am, downstairs.
Afterwards, kids and youth of all ages are encouraged to attend our services, which are intergenerational, from 11am to 12pm.
A nursery is also available from 10am to 12pm.
Our mission:
UUFF Children’s and Youth Religious Exploration seek to cultivate the seven principles of Unitarian Universalism within our young people.
Those principles are:
- Every person is important.
- Be kind in all you do.
- We’re free to learn together.
- We can search for what is true.
- All people need a voice.
- Build a fair and peaceful world.
- We care for the earth.
We pull wisdom from many sources, including:
- The sense of wonder we share
- People whose lives remind us to be kind and fair
- Ethical and spiritual wisdom of world religions
- Christian and Jewish traditions to love each other
- Humanist teachings of science and reason
- The harmony of nature and the sacred circle of life
Lessons are interactive and experiential, often involving stories, songs, crafts, games, and discussions.
