RE Mission
Our religious education program works
to create an accepting environment that empowers children and youth to explore their spirituality, celebrate diversity, and live our Unitarian Universalist values.
|
Family Ministry
We believe that families play a vital role in furthering this empowerment to explore and live our UU values. We are excited to support our families by offering ideas from the UUA's Tapestry of Faith program as well as graces and thought provoking questions related to the topics introduced during Sunday religious education classes. We hope you find this enjoyable and spiritually fulfilling for you and your whole family.

A Chalice Lighting:
We light this flame
For those who have been ridiculed,
That they may find peace;
For those who have fought to marry,
That they may celebrate;
For those who live in uncertainty in the world,
That they may have hope.
We light this flame
To renew our commitment
That no one shall ever again
Suffer for the right to love.
We light this flame
To celebrate our kaleidoscope of diversity:
Working, loving, and living on the side of love.
For this, we light this flame.
by Linda Lee Franson
