All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church of Shreveport, Louisiana
A home for Unitarian Universalism and liberal religion in Shreveport, Bossier City, and Northwest Louisiana since 1950
During the summer, our children and youth participate in various fun artistic and creative activities.
On this Sunday (2 July 2023), we are bringing back origami for the first time in many years with teachers Noah Jarrell-Wagstaff and Ash McLain.
Children and youth will learn to make a crane and other folds from this ancient Japanese art form with easier folds and drawing paper available for the littlest children.
Grownups are also welcome to hang out and learn after church in the social hall.
There will be no adult religious education class this Sunday (2 July 2023).
Please join us next Sunday (9 July 2023) for our adult religious education class at 9:00 AM. We are taking a break for the Fourth of July holiday weekend — please have a safe and fun holiday weekend.
Our adult religious education class is now a dual-platform class — meeting in person in the church social hall and also on Zoom.
For that week, we will continue our discussion of Patrice Cullor’s An Abolitionist’s Handbook. We will be discussing this one chapter:

Please join us on the first of our fun religious education Summer activities for children and youth — Tie-Dye Sunday.
The Sunday before Father’s Day is our annual “Tie-Dye for Dads and Other Special People” in the religious education wing.
Children and youth should bring a 100% cotton garment to tie dye.
More than one garment will probably be OK. Bandanas, aprons, and tote bags are all OK, too, as long as they are cotton because that holds the dye better.
We will have a few extra shirts on hand for donation but bringing your own guarantees the size and style you want.
Like most Sundays at All Souls, the kids will be with us in the sanctuary until we sing them out to their activity.
Advice for those who are tie-dyeing:
