Children and Youth Religious Education Classes — 19 March 2023

Children and youth will attend the worship service for the first 15-20 minutes and then are dismissed to their classes.

We are now discussing peace, social justice, and the interdependent web and these ideas connect to our Unitarian Universalist faith.

Elementary class with Ash McLain and Kevin Henry will explore “Friendship with People Different from You” looking at the importance of friendships that embrace differences as they celebrate commonalities.

Middle and High School Class with Noah Wagstaff and Dawn Subasic will continue their exploration of Allport’s Ladder of Prejudice — a timeline created by Gordon Allport using the timeline of the Holocaust to show how name calling leads to economic and legislative attacks that lead to physical attacks that can ultimately lead to genocide).  What are the patterns we see in the present day and how are we called to stand in integrity with our UU principles and values?
