Religious Exploration for Children

 

 

 

Greetings—Starr King UU Church is a community of all ages! You and your family are welcome here. Read on for more about our educational philosophy and learning community.

Unitarian Universalism believes in a free and responsible search for truth and meaning. This is why we talk about both religious education and exploration. Our goal is spiritual growth within a loving and respectful community.We teach our children about our Unitarian Universalist roots and identity, our Jewish and Christian heritage and the gifts of the world’s religions. More importantly, we help our children develop a sense of urgency about working for justice and a belief in their own power, as individuals and as a community, to create change. Our values teach us to honor beauty and diversity, cherish human and non-human life and greet the world with open minds and hearts.

People of all ages (except teens, who head to the SKY youth group right away) begin together in the main sanctuary. After a story for the young and young-at-heart, children go to a funshop, an activity (led by members of our community) that ties in with the theme of the adult service. Funshops include social justice projects, singing, learning about the fall harvest and doing art projects. A few times a year, we stay together in the sanctuary as a multigenerational community. These are especially fun services! We also provide nursery care. Babies, children and youth are always welcome to remain in the sanctuary for the whole service.

Families and people of all ages are invited to join us on Sunday mornings in our religious exploration. If you have questions or would like more information about programming for specific ages, email dre@starrking.org or the church office at 510-581-2060.

Get in touch to say hi or just swing by on Sunday! We hope to see you soon.

Lane Campbell, Director of Religious Education
