Religious Education for Children and Youth
Welcome!
Our religious community is one which encourages and celebrates seekers! We help each other discover for ourselves what is true and good in life. As we remind each other every Sunday, “Ours is the church of the open mind; ours is the church of the helping hand; ours is the church of the loving heart. Together we work for peace and justice in our community.” Please contact us if you would like to learn more!We do not divide experiences into compartments and say, “These are religious; those are secular. These problems are in the realm of ethics; those have no ethical implications.”
Life becomes religious and ethical whenever we make it so:- When some new light is seen
- When some deeper appreciation is felt
- When some larger outlook is gained
- When some nobler purpose is formed
- When some task is well done
The function of the church for both young and old is not to give us on Sunday certain religious kinds of experiences different from the experiences of every day. The function of the church is rather to teach us how to put religious and ethical qualities into all kinds of experiences. Sophia Lyon Fahs, “mother” of Liberal Religious Education.
