The Fall 2020 program will follow a story written by church member Sue Yamane-Carpenter called “Little Bear and the Eight Principles.” We will learn the Eight Principles of Unitarian Universalism through short videos and hands-on crafts. You can follow the program at your own pace beginning in October. Towards the end of the program we will ask the families who have participated to submit a photo for sharing during church. Please contact Carmen Golay, the RE Coordinator, for a craft kit so you can get started!

WHAT DOES SUNDAY LOOK LIKE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE?

Our entire congregation starts the Sunday service together, in the main sanctuary. One of the first elements is the Story for All Ages, and all keiki are invited to sit on the rug at the front of the church. After the story, the congregation sings the children upstairs to attend a unifying mindfulness and singing portion followed by classes by grade (s). Parents are welcome to join their children for any portion of the program. Parents pick up their children from class at 11:15. We also offer infant/toddler care from 9:45-11:15 so that parents may share time with others before and after the Service.

Please REGISTER your family to join the programs.

 

INFANTS AND TODDLER CARE: 6 WEEKS TO 3 YEARS (9:45AM – 11:15AM)

Babies and toddlers are kept safe and happy with loving care. Our nursery room is a warm and welcoming place staffed by professional childcare providers. Toddlers are often engaged in activities related to the Keiki Program and the music conducted in the Keiki RE.

WELCOME (10:15-10:30)

Each Sunday youth ages 6-12 will meet and discover sessions structured around the Unitarian Universalist Principles, Faithful Journeys demonstrates that our Principles are not a dogma, but a credo that indviduals can affirm with many kinds of action. Over the course of the program, children discover a unity of faith in the many different way Unitarian Universalists, including themselves, can act on our beliefs.
