| Through our religious exploration program we present
UU principles to our children as a framework upon which they
can build their beliefs. Our goal is to encourage children to
develop into mature adults who make their own decisions about
what they believe and who take responsibility for those decisions. |
|
| Each Sunday, children and facilitators begin at
10:30 in the main meeting room. After opening music, announcements,
and a children's sermon, they are dismissed for their religious
education classes. Classes end at 11:45 am. Parents are asked
to pick up their children from their classrooms at that time. |
