Here's what's happening with Religious Education
This Sunday, January 29, 2012
Join us and have some fun!

"I have a dream...."  Those words of the famous speech made by Martin Luther King Jr. even the smallest child may know.  This Social Justice Sunday will focus on our dreams and aspirations that help may the world a better place.  What are your dreams?  What can you do to make a difference in your own life and community?  Please join us as we decorate t-shirts and pillowcases to remind us to dream big!  You can make a difference! Volunteers needed.

Our High School Youth Group meets after the worship service from 12:00 to 1:00 pm.

We can't wait for Sunday!

Volunteers to help with sign-in and sign-out and playground supervision after the worship service are always needed and appreciated.

Important Reminders:
(1)  Register your child (including high school youth) for the 2011-2012 Religious Education Program.  It only takes a few minutes and now can be done online (see link at top of this page) or by filling out a registration form in the Social Hall.  Classes began on September 25.

(2) Our RE Giving Tree is located in the Social Hall near the Maxwell Library. Each leaf has an item that the RE program needs. Please take a few leaves and help support our children and youth.

I hope to see you Sunday with a smile!

I would like to welcome everyone to another wonderful year of Religious Education at the Unitarian Universalists of Clearwater.  In our classes, we encourage everyone to speak up, ask questions, offer suggestions and stay involved. The purpose of our Religious Education Program is not only to learn more about Unitarian Universalism, but to help build relationships, develop a greater sense of belonging, to support one’s spiritual journey and to have FUN!

Our Religious Education classes begin at 10:30 am. Our Nursery offers free play and loving care for our littlest UUs (ages 0-3). On the first Sunday of each month we begin with Children’s Worship in the Maxwell Library.  This gives the children a chance to worship and share on a more cozy level. On the remaining Sundays, the children will attend the first part of the service in the Sanctuary with their parents. The children will participate with the rest of the congregation in lighting the chalice, singing hymns and hearing a story in keeping with the day’s theme before going to their classes.

I encourage you not to let Religious Education end when you leave UUC on Sunday, but to make it a part of your everyday life. In addition to Sundays, I am usually at church on Wednesdays from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm and most Fridays from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm or we can get together at another time that is more convenient for you.

I hope to see you on Sunday with a smile!

OUR CHILDREN'S CHOIRS, which are non-auditioned groups open to all children in grades K-8, rehearse in the choir room on Sunday mornings from 9:45 to10:15 am. One choir is for children from kindergarten to grade 4; the other for grades 5 to 12.  Children's choir is a unique opportunity for your child to not only enhance his or her worshipful spirit, but also to enhance his or her musical spirit and social spirit. It is a joyful time for the children and to highlight that joy, the younger group will be singing during worship on Sunday, March 20 at 10:30 am.  This group needs more members.  We hope you and your child(ren) will consider joining the children's choirs.
