Overview
UUCF offers a complete, year-round religious education (RE) experience for all children and youth.
RE Classes are offered during church services at 9:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. (September-May), and 10:00 a.m. (June- August).
On Sunday mornings the children and youth begin in the Meeting House with the congregation or in the Marge Brown room for Children's Chapel. After 15 - 20 minutes of worship our young people attend classes led by volunteers from our church community and supported by our Director of Religious Education.
Our curriculum promotes and affirms the Principles and Sources of Unitarian Universalism. Teaching about and engaging in the World Religions encourages students to see the commonalities in other religions as they continue on their individual spiritual and philosophical journey.
