DRE Andrea James’ Blog is here. Welcome to the 2010-2011 Religious Exploration (RE) program for children and youth. For an overview of what's offered for young people, what to expect on Sundays, an RE Calendar, and more, please see our current Family Handbook. The guide and registration forms are downloadable (above), and are available in hard copy in the church foyer. Please be aware that dates are subject to change throughout the year. Registration forms must be completed for all children and youth in our programs, and returned to Director of Religious Exploration Andrea James (mail folder under "J"). Newcomers are always welcome. When visiting, please complete a Visitors Form, available in the RE area. In order to comply with our Fire Safety Procedures, please ensure your child is wearing shoes when they are in the church. Feel free to leave some shoes for your children in the RE rooms over the winter months.

“We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of ...our lives... not looking for flaws, but for potential.” |

| Civil Rights and Social Justice |
Unitarian Universalists have historically been closely involved with civil rights and social justice movements. John Haynes Holmes, a UU minister, was among the founders of both the NAACP and the ACLU, chairing the latter for a time. Approximately 20% of Unitarian Universalist ministers marched with Martin Luther King, Jr., from Selma, Alabama, to Montgomery. UU ministers have been performing same-sex unions since at least the late 1960s. In 1995 the UUA helped establish the International Council of Unitarians and Universalists (ICUU). |
