Children and Youth Religious Education (28 April 2024)

For this Sunday (28 April 2024), both classes — grades pre-K through 5 and middle school / high school — will continue their focus on peace, social justice, and the interdependent web.

Both classes will further explore the proposed Unitarian Universalist values to come before the General Assembly this summer thanks to the wonder of JETPIG (justice, equity, transformation, pluralism, interdependence, and generosity).
