Religious Education
September 30, 2008
A religious education class gives a child a chance to discuss important ideas. Children need to talk about their beliefs and values to help clarify how they will think and act. This fall Bell Street Chapel will be offering four religious education sessions for children in kindergarten through 6th grade.
The sessions will be held Oct. 26, Nov. 9, Nov. 30, and Dec. 14. The students will attend the first part of church with their families and listen to the story for all ages. Then they will go downstairs to their classroom with two teachers and discuss the story. They will focus on the Unitarian Universalist principles and purposes and the sources and how they relate to the story. The children will prepare and hold a short worship service based on the theme of the story. Then they will come upstairs and join in the closing “Carry the Flame” circle with the congregation.
