Unitarian Universalist Church of Canton
RE Mission
Our religious education program works to create an accepting environment that empowers children and youth to explore their spirituality, celebrate diversity, and live our Unitarian Universalist values.
Family Ministry
  We believe that families play a vital role in furthering this empowerment to explore and live our UU values. We are excited to support our families by offering ideas from the UUA's Tapestry of Faith program as well as graces and thought provoking questions related to the topics introduced during Sunday religious education classes. We hope you find this new initiative enjoyable and spiritually fulfilling for your whole family.
In RE Next Week
Our church year begins!  All children and youth will be participating in our annual ingathering worship service .  Remember to bring your water.

For the Week of September 3, 2017
A Table Grace:
We are thankful for the food on this table.
We are thankful for this time together.
Our thoughts go out to family and friends;
We hope that they are safe and well.
A Chalice Lighting:
In this small flame dwell:
the beacon light of lanterns guiding travelers home;
the warmth of hearth fires tended through the generations;
the transforming energy of furnaces and the power and life of our sun.
May these blessings---warmth and light and life-giving energy---be kindled in each of us. 
By Jean L. Wahlstrom
This Sunday we participated in a fun day.  We played outdoor games and enjoyed each others companionship.
Family Discussion - In the spirit of summer fun, during a shared meal discuss the answers to this question - "If you had a time machine for a day, what would you do with it? "
