What is Sikhism? — We begin the New Year with this unit exploring our third source (“Wisdom of the world’s religions which inspires us in our ethical and spiritual life”).
We’ll begin with Sikhism.
There are more Sikhs in the USA than Unitarian Universalists but what do we know of this tradition that originated in 15th century India?
Join us as we endeavor to find out more.
Our family religious education Zoom class is taking a holiday break as well, but watch this space and other communication on Facebook and Slack from All Souls for news on the winter holiday edition of the kids play day on Zoom.
The tentative date for our next kids play date is Saturday (2 January 2021) time TBA.
Regular family religious education sessions will resume after the first of the year on Sundays at 1:00 PM unless we find a time that works better for more people.
Again, watch this space and all other online places for religious education updates for any upcoming changes.
Please email Susan Caldwell (All Souls Director of Religious Education) if you want to know when the next play date is happening.
