Lifespan Religious Exploration Program

As a lifespan program we strive to support the spiritual growth of youth in our UU community.  We will focus on strengthening intergenerational relationships and exploring religious and ethical ideas.  Children and families are an integral part of our community.  The children's Lifespan Religious Exploration Program (LRE) is a significant priority within our Fellowship and one that all our members take a great deal of pride in.

There are many ways to participate in the LRE program:

  • Children's sessions are offered Sunday mornings during service, 10:15 - 11:15 AM.  Infant, toddler and pre-school care are offered in the nursery during Sunday service. 
    Children and youth begin in service at 10:00 AM and are dismissed to their classes on the second floor.
  • We have periodic intergenerational Sunday services created for children and adults to participate in and learn from each other as a community.
  • Parents are invited to join the LRE committee, volunteer to facilitate a class, or assist during one of our annual children's activities . . . or simply help in ways that are fun for you and the children.

Adult Lifespan Religious Exploration Program

Adult programs support life-long learning for those 18 and beyond.  Adult sessions are offered during the week and weekends. Details are available on the LRE insert in the Sunday bulletin and on the LRE website.

Adult LRE programs aim to help participants:

  • Deepen trust with fellow travelers continuing their spiritual journeys in our UU community
  • Refine the search of individual and communal spiritual practices, moral reasoning and theological discourse.
  • Create a foundation for community outreach.
  • Identify and explore personal gifts and talents that can be used in the different fellowship ministries.
