Online Religious Education for Children (3 January 2021)

Please join us this Sunday (3 January 2021) at 1:00 PM for our weekly family religious education online class via Zoom.

The Zoom link will be on the All Souls Religious Education Facebook group and on the church’s Slack General channel.

Our family religious education class is back from our holiday break.

In keeping with the theme of today’s worship service, we’ll take another look at the story of Rabbi Simcha and the Two Pockets and also do some fun stuff with the idea of finding balance.

We moved our next children’s play day to next Saturday (9 January 2021 at 11:00 AM) via Zoom.

Watch for the link in all the usual places — we love to see our All Souls kids and parents too.

What is Sikhism? — We begin the New Year with this unit exploring our third source (“Wisdom of the world’s religions which inspires us in our ethical and spiritual life”).

We’ll begin with Sikhism.

There are more Sikhs in the USA than Unitarian Universalists but what do we know of this tradition that originated in 15th century India?

Join us as we endeavor to find out more.

Please join us on Sunday (27 December 2020) at 9:30 AM for our adult religious education class (please note the time change).

We will be meeting via Zoom.

We are taking a bit of a break from structed class and curriculum for the next two weeks but not a break from our time with each other.

In order not to go two whole weeks without visiting each other and seeing each other’s faces, we will get together during the holiday weekend Sundays at 9:30 AM (a slightly later time for check-in only and of whatever free-form discussion might evolve in the time we have).

Even if you’re not one of the regular class participants, you are more than welcome to join us and become a part of this kind, funny, supportive and positively brilliant group.

Think of it as a virtual coffee hour before church or a youth group for adults — join us at the link provided above.
