Unitarian Universalist Church of Canton
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.
In RE Next Week
Our children and youth will participate in a fun day.  C heck for details on our Facebook Page and website .

For the Week of June 9, 2019
A Table Grace:
As we come together at this special time, let us pause a moment to appreciate the opportunity for good company and to thank all those past and present whose efforts have made this event possible. We reap the fruits of our society, our country, and our civilization, and take joy in the bounties of nature on this happy occasion. Let us also wish that, some day, all people on Earth may enjoy the same good fortune that we share.
- Red Bank Humanists
A Chalice Lighting:
We light this chalice for our children and youth, and for us.  
 Celebrating the flame of faith lit in each of us,  
 honoring the light each of us bring into the world,  
 rejoicing in the community we create together.   
by Christian Schmidt and Alexis Capen
