Nursery (infants to 3 or 4 years old)
Supervised childcare is available each Sunday for infants up to age 3 or 4. Children are signed in and out by their parent/guardian and are picked up from the nursery room immediately after the service. There is no fee for this service.

 

4K - 2nd Grade - Spirit Play

Our younger explorers participate in a child-led Montessori-style classroom which includes a visually-enhanced story illustrating UU principles or values, followed by independent play or works with carefully curated activities. The atmosphere in Spirit Play is designed to be calming and encourage both bonding with peers and independent exploration of themes and activities. Children must be picked up by their parent/guardian after the service at the classroom door. 

 

3rd - 6th Grade - Elementary Classroom - World Religions
This year we are re-introducing a favorite UUA curriculum, updated within the past few years. Holidays and Holy Days provides a sampling of world religious traditions using the themes of seasonal celebrations. While similarities between different religions are highlighted, the incredible diversity of the world’s spiritual practices are what keep the lessons fun and engaging. We do often have food as part of these lesson plans so accurate reporting of any allergies is essential with registration. Note: Depending on the age ranges we encounter, we may expand the upper age limit of this classroom to middle schoolers who are interested in the subject.

Middle & High School First Friday of the month Gatherings
This year we are planning family time during the evening of the first Friday of every month. Youth in middle and high school are encouraged to come and bond with their peers with space set aside for them specifically at these evenings. If interest warrants, additional youth activities may be considered,  
 

YOUR FIRST SUNDAY
Come a few minutes before 10am. There will be greeters at the door who welcome newcomers and regulars alike, so you won't have to figure anything out on your own.

 

If you'd like to drop off a younger child, a greeter will walk you to the nursery. Children around 4 and up are welcome to join the service with you. School-age children head to their classroom partway through, after a story for all ages.

 

Visitors are welcome to attend a class or two before registering.

REGISTRATION INFORMATION

The registration for RE classes for 2025-2026 has begun. Registration is required after the first visit in order for us to provide the best experience for your children. We will also have a weekly sign-in sheet in the church lobby on Sunday mornings to check off upon arrival. This will give our classroom leaders an idea of who will be joining us each week and allow us to track trends in attendance. There is no fee for participating in the RE programs. To help implement this benefit to members and regular guests, we ask that you indicate how you want to contribute to one or more of the many RE programming duties.

​

IT TAKES A VILLAGE
Every staff member and volunteer in our Family Ministry program completes a background check.

We make volunteering easy, with support and prepared environments — you don't need experience or a set schedule. Not into teaching? Share your time, talents or helping hands in whatever way fits you best.
