Religious Education News
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 children and youth will hear a story about thankfulness and another about the universe, consider radical hospitality, identify and publicize an issue, consider differing abilities and paint.

For the Week of November 5, 2017
A Table Grace:
For health and food,
For love and friends,
For everything
Thy goodness sends,
Father in Heaven,
We thank Thee.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Chalice Lighting:
In times of light and times of darkness
May this small flame
Kindle what is good
In us and in the world.
~ Sarah Gibb Millspaugh
Please consider utilizing these ideas to deepen and inspire your faith during the week.
Discussion Topic - Our 5th principle states, "The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large."  During a shared meal with family or friends discuss why is it important to vote. 
Inspired by our OWL class: This weekend our class focused on identity.  Part of our identity is gender.  Click here to check out more details about The Genderbread Person pictured above.
