Lifespan Religious Exploration
Welcome! Unitarian Universalist life-span religious exploration programs support the spiritual growth of youth
and adults in our UU community. We strive to create an environment of life-long learning with a
commitment to the principles of Unitarian Universalism. Our programs offer guidance, companionship,
encouragement and empowerment as we embark on spiritual journeys, and address religious and ethical questions in our lives.

learn more About Our Programs
Our programs provide age-appropriate learning for our whole congregation - infants to adults.
• Wee Ones
(Infants-Kindergarten):
More than babysitting, the intentional care we provide offers a chance to experience love; to experience trust.
• Explorers (Grade 1-6):
Learning from wisdom stories and their own questions while they begin to practice trust.
• Seekers (Grade
7-9):
Exploring and articulating their attitudes and beliefs about
people in the Bible, God, death and Unitarian Universalism
through participation in the Coming of Age (COA) program.
• Youth
Testing trustworthiness through leadership and learning opportunities in group worship, social action and community building.
• Adults (18 and beyond):
Deepening trust, refining the search for our individual and communal spiritual practices, moral reasoning and theological discourse.
