RE Schedule
2024-25 R.E. plans
We are focusing this year on creating a culture of care, and I personally think there is no better way to care for our community than to get involved in our children’s programming! We have a lot of ways to get involved. Here is some of what we have planned this year.
Sunday Morning Programming
Potter Class: Our preschoolers will be doing the important work of learning about friendship and community building, as well as celebrating the wonders of our world.
Barton Class: Our Kindergarten through second grade class will be learning about our newly articulated seven values through a lego-based curriculum.
Latimer Class: Our third and fourth graders will be learning about famous UUs and how they were inspired by their UU values.
Adams Family Class (joined by Young UUs): Our fifth through eighth graders will be watching Star Trek episodes and discussing some of the big ideas and questions presented in them.
Sunday Afternoon Teen Programming
YRUU: The high schoolers in our YRUU program will design their own curriculum and mixture of fun activities, service projects, workshops and discussions.
Second Friday Evenings Middle Schoolers Programming
Junior Youth: The middle schoolers in our Junior Youth group meet for a variety of fun activities and service projects.
R.E. Family Parties (last Saturday evening of the month)
We had an amazing R.E. Kick-Off Party in August, and we are planning another one for the end of October. If you would like to get involved in helping to plan R.E. Family Parties, please let DRE Jamila Batchelder know – she would love the help!
You can contact DRE Jamila Batchelder by email.

You are invited to attend one of the most fun nights of the year at UUCC – the Valentine’s Day Family Dance!

Light refreshments will be served.
