| Dear Parents, Members, and Friends, |
|
Welcome to the
Religious Education
Program at Minnesota Valley Unitarian Universalist Fellowship.
We are pleased to offer a full curriculum of religious education
classes for all ages, preschool through high school. We have a program
that is coordinated by a very active and committed Religious Education
Committee.
In addition to regular classes, intergenerational events and activities
occur throughout the year: Flower and Water Celebrations , Music
Sunday, Child Dedications and others.
Our annual fundraiser for the
Unitarian Universalist Service Committee is a luncheon prepared by
Religious Education classes. Secret
Friends, a month-long letter exchange for adults and children,
occurs during January and February.
Teams of members and parents, who bring to the Fellowship a diverse
background of life experience and religious roots, teach classes.
Though we do not charge a registration fee, we ask parents to volunteer
at least 3 hours of time per child enrolled in the program.
On behalf of the Religious Education Committee, we encourage you to
look through this year's program, identify how your time, talents and
interests may contribute, and call anyone on the Religious Education
Committee to volunteer. We look forward to a wonderful year of learning
and growing together!
Jan Fitzgerald,
Director of Religious Education
