Online Religious Education for Children and Youth (12 July 2020)

Please join us for our online religious education for children and youth this Sunday (12 July 2020) — we will start this online Zoom classroom at 1:00 PM after the virtual coffee hour is over.

The Zoom link  for this group will be found on the All Souls Religious Education Facebook Group.

I look forward to seeing pictures of your peace and justice message stones, hear your stories of where you left them, and who you hope will get your messages.

And if you still haven’t painted your message stones, no worries — we will also be having a Seven Principles Scavenger Hunt in your house.

We can still use your art work illustrating our principles and sources.

You can post it on the All Souls Religious Education page on Facebook or send it to Susan at dre@allsoulsshreveport.org.

We can use more illustrations of the third and fourth principles and — of course — the eighth principle too:

  • How people act when they support each other and learn together
  • How people act when they are free to search for truth in their own lives?
  • How people act when they are working to dismantle racism and create beloved community?

Join us using the religious education Zoom link about 5 minutes after the worship service.

If you aren’t on Facebook, send Susan Caldwell an email or text her at 318-465-3427 to get into Zoom for online religious education class.
