Tie-Dye Sunday — 12 June 2016

Tie-DyeInstead of traditional classroom activities, our children and youth have fun community-building and learning activities instead.

For this Sunday (12 June 2016), we will have “Tie-Dye for Dads and Other Special Grown-Ups”!

This is an annual Sunday-Before-Father’s Day tradition — led by Richard Denton (patriarch of the Denton Tie-Dyenasty).

The children and youth can tie-dye shirts, tote bags, bandanas, BBQ aprons, or any 100% cotton items for dads or other special grown-ups in their lives including themselves.

5 June 2016 Worship Service and Religious Education for Children and Youth

RoadLessTraveledPlease join us on Sunday (5 June 2016) at 11:00 AM for “Crowd Control on the Road Less Traveled” by Rev. Susan M. Smith.

Please join us to welcome Rev. Susan Smith back to our pulpit — Susan says:

We get our first UU Source — direct experience of mystery and wonder — from our Transcendentalist ancestors who put great store in connecting with The Holy through their senses, the natural world, quiet time to think and very long walks.  In their time, they were considered heretics but now they would fit in beautifully with the large group of us who identify ourselves as “spiritual but not religious.”  Even though it seems that everyone is going their own way and doing their own thing, it is possible to live a life both authentic and unique.

In observance of President Obama’s recent visit to Hiroshima, the children will revisit the story of Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes, and learn a variety of origami projects spanning a range of degrees of difficulty.  Richard Denton will lead this activity.
