9 to 10 a.m. – Children’s Religious Education – Lower Level-Centering Room
On March 24, there will be a “Group Sunday” focusing on books. The children will attend the first portion of the 9 a.m. worship service before going to their class. On other Sundays, our 9 a.m. children’s R.E. curriculum, called “Spirit Play,” is based on a Montessori approach to learning that encourages self-directed exploration. Free nursery care for infants to 3-year-olds will be available beginning at 8:45 a.m. Read more.
10:05 to 10:45 a.m. – Mindfulness Meditation – Centering Room, Schweitzer Classroom, or Fire Circle
Mindfulness Meditation takes place from 10:05 to 10:45 a.m. every Sunday in the Centering Room or Schweitzer classroom – or, if the weather is suitable, outside around the Fire Circle. On fourth Sundays throughout the year, Mindfulness Meditation takes place at the Fire Circle whatever the weather (unless it is raining). Meditators of all levels of experience are welcome. This is mainly silent meditation with some instruction, if needed, and with brief selected readings from eminent teachers. Our hope is to build a group of UU members committed to regular meditation practice. Email Peter Holmes for more information.
11 a.m. to noon – Children’s Religious Education – Lower Level
On March 24, there will be a “Group Sunday” focusing on books. The children and youths will attend the first portion of the 11 a.m. worship service in the Sanctuary with their families before going to their classes or other scheduled activities. On other Sundays at 11 a.m., we offer an R.E. program for pre-schoolers through junior high school students, as well as nursery care for infants. Free nursery care for infants to 3-year-olds will be available until 12:30 p.m. Read more.
Noon to 2 p.m. – YRUU – Lower Level-YRUU Room
