Faith Formation 2021-22

The Unitarian Church in Westport will be holding in-person programming for our children and youth. At this time we require everyone to wear facemasks during services and classes. We will continually monitor facemask requirements throughout the fall/winter.

Formal programming will start Sunday, September 26th. We will use content from Soul Matters, which, if needed, can be utilized on-line. The goal is to incorporate experiential activities that emphasize Unitarian Universalist history and values.

 

The Young Children - Pre K – 5 classes will be taught by professionals as well as volunteer members.  Each month there is a theme which will be used by all groups in the church that utilize the Soul Matters materials. The themes will be explored via art-based projects, poetry, music, meditation, science and games which will always feature a story to reinforce the theme.

Our 6th and 7th graders will be following the program called Crossing Paths. As stated in the Soul Matters synopsis, “Crossing Paths is a program that treats every religion as a unique system. Every world faith tradition was born in response to a distinct human struggle. We believe we honor religions best when we work to understand the particular challenge and aspiration to Many Paths.” In this program we will meet with other faith leaders and have open discussions about various pertinent topics. We will also visit different houses of worship both in-person and virtually.

If you have any questions about Pre K- 7 Faith Formation please contact Dr. Heather Hamilton, heather@uuwestport.org or call 203-227-7205 X17
