Our religious education program was created to support parents who are raising their children with an appreciation of liberal religious values. We hope our young people will:
- Become part of a caring, concerned religious community
- Develop a positive self-image
- Form a Unitarian Universalist identity by learning about our values, traditions, symbols, and celebrations
- Explore great religious truths
- Demonstrate a sense of social responsibility
- Affirm our interdependence with the universe and our responsibility to cherish and care for the earth
- Sense the excitement and joy of learning as a lifelong process
