Please join us on Sunday (25 May 2014) at 9:00 AM for our all-ages religious education hour.
The adult class will continue a series of Civic Academies from Together Louisiana (Northern and Central Louisiana Interfaith belongs to this statewide organization).
The children and youth continue their pillar on personal spiritual growth
- Pre-K/K-1 — The pillar theme explores our emotions. The lesson theme this week is Laughter, and this will be a fun lesson. They’ll talk about the things that make us laugh, hear a story about a ridiculous family (Make Way for Dumb Bunnies!) and play some fun games.
- 2nd-5th Grade — Continuing their focus on Prayer, a way of connecting to Source in a way that is meaningful for each of us, the class will explore themes of Insight and Sorrow and continue making their UU Prayer Beads.
- Middle School/High School — Now planning activities for the end of the year, so we need everybody here.
Our adults will be learning about “Crime and Punishment in Louisiana” — A Civic Academy on Mass Incarceration presented by Lady Carlson
Behind the numbers, which are horrifying enough, lies a tragic story of lives destroyed over youthful mistakes and big money for the Prison Industrial Complex.
And yet, a recent bill to bring some sanity to sentencing reform died in Senate Judiciary Committee C.
Join Lady Carlson to find out more about the problem and possible solutions.
