Welcome to UUCJ's Religious Education for

Children & Youth!

 

 

The great end in religious instruction is not to stamp our own minds upon the young, but to stir up their own; not to make them see with our eyes, but to look inquiringly and steadily with their own…. In a word, the great end is to awaken the soul; to bring understanding, conscience, and heart into earnest vigorous action on religious and moral truth, to excite and cherish spiritual life.

-William Ellery Channing

 

We welcome you and your children to UUCJ's Religious Education Program. Classes are held in the Newman Religious Education Building next to the sanctuary every Sunday from 11:20 a.m.-12:00 p.m. In addition, the YUUth (ages 12-18) get together for monthly outings.

The purpose of our Children’s Religious Education Program is not to take your place as your child’s religious educator, but to help you by enriching and reinforcing what you are trying to teach at home.

 

R.E. Committee

All of our Religious Education/Exploration classes are planned by a small committee of dedicated volunteers. The R.E. Committee Meetings usually are held monthly after church on the first Sunday of the month and are open for anyone interested to attend. Check the Director of Religious Education (DRE) or one of our committee members for more information:

2010-2011 R.E. Committee Members

Stacy DeZutter (DRE), Ranjan Batra, Amy Griggs, Dary Shenefelt

Thank you to our wonderful team of volunteers!
