Mission Statement
|
| The mission of the Religious
Education Program is to
give
our children a solid foundation of Religious knowledge and the
experience
of UU principles
within a supportive fellowship to empower them as
adults
to live their own religious journeys with integrity. |
| Dear Parents, Members, and Friends, |
|
We have excellent material for each
group of children and youth ths year and a dynamite group of caring,
experienced teachers.
- Our long-time nursery care provider, Meagan
Gosinger, will be back to take good care of the youngest ones.
- Preschool will continue downstairs in the yellow
room across from the kitchen, which has much more space, and this group
will be our chalice children.
- First and second graders will be in the orange
room and will explore around our church and learn about some
fascinating Unitarian Universalists.
- Third and fourth graders will have many hands on
experiences in the green room as they learn about eight famous
Unitarian Universalists, including Dorothea Dix, Theodore Parker and
Lewis Latimer.
- In the purple room, fifth and sixth graders will
have a new curriculum, Amazing Grace, Exploring Right and Wrong, from
the Unitarian Universalist Association.
- The Junior High will be learning about our
Neighboring Faiths and visit places of different faiths.
- In the Senior High comfy room they will explore
the Unitarian Universalist local Twin Cities scene.
All this will be happening Sunday after Sunday with
our wonderful volunteer teachers.
Jan Fitzgerald,
Director of Religious Education
