Upcoming Services
This Sunday, December 3:
Children's Religious Education at 10:30 am:

The Youth RE committee oversees the children's Sunday morning RE program, as well as special events during the year, including a one-week ANT (Art, Nature, Theater) Camp each summer. The children begin their Sunday in Friendship Hall with their families and after the opening hymn, come forward for the chalice lighting and the Children’s Affirmation before being sung off to the Sunday school room for their lesson and accompanying activities, provided by teacher Kim Kroflich. Lessons are provided for children ages 5-12, and child care for those younger than 5, concurrent with the adult Sunday morning service.
The committee is responsible for providing a teacher and a teen assistant for the children's RE and overseeing their work as well as maintaining the rooms where the children's activities take place to make sure they are attractive and welcoming as well as safe for children of all ages. For our curriculum, we use the Tapestry of Faith units available for downloading from the UUA website. Teen programs are also available whenever there is sufficient need and participation.
A final important job of the committee is to publicize the children's program and attract more young families to Friendship Fellowship. We welcome new members to the Youth RE Committee, so if you are interested in working with the children and joining us, please see chair Ruth Rodgers.

Ancestral Spirituality & Decolonizing Our Faith
Sermon by Dr. Laura Mcguire (in person)
What do our ancestral spiritual practices have to teach us in the present? Many of us have wondered about how our theist forebearers experienced spirituality, but we often struggle to find ways to return to these traditions. In this sermon, Dr. McGuire will discuss their own return to their Indigenous spiritual roots in Judaism and how blending modern faith practices with healing ancestral spiritual trauma can benefit us all.
