Our four big educational goals
- Have fun and feel part of a community
- Gain basic religious literacy
- Learn skills associated with liberal religion (public speaking, singing, basic leadership, interpersonal skills, etc.)
- Prepare children to become UU adults, should they choose to do so when they’re old enough to make their own decisions
Our chalice lighting
“We light this chalice to celebrate Unitarian Universalism, the church of the open mind, helping hands, and loving hearts.”
