Thanks for journeying with us for the 2023-24 Religious Education (RE) year!

Programs for the 2024-25 year begin on September 20, 2024.

For kids from Kindergarten to grade 5, participants will build community during Soul Kids on Sunday mornings. Elementary kids will start in the sanctuary with their families. Our congregation will sing out the kids to their program.

For youth in grades 6-7-8, our Junior High Youth Group (we call it JHYG) will take place twice a month on the 1st & 3rd Sundays during service. Youth, please start in service with your adult(s).

For youth in grades 9-10-11-12, our Senior High Youth Group (we call it SHYG) continues to be a place of connection, mutual support, and exploration of our UU ethical and spiritual values as we engage with the challenges of our lives and our world. SHYG meets twice a month on the 1st and 3rd Sundays during service. Please start in service with your adult(s).

At UUSS, our RE program creates a sacred space where children and youth explore, wonder, and ask questions surrounded by a beloved community of peers, teachers, and mentors. Our work is to give our children and youth a sense of belonging, the knowledge that they are enough just the way they are, and a place in congregational life. Religious Education is a combination of connection, educational opportunities, service, and justice-making. On any given Sunday, our children are engaged in one of these activities. RE is a partnership between our staff, volunteer teachers, and the family.
