This Week in Religious Education
What is happening for children, youth, and families at OUUC
Family Chapel This Sunday
This Sunday we will introduce our March theme in Family Chapel, which begins right at 11:00 in the classroom wing. Please come straight back to the classrooms, rather than starting in the sanctuary as we do on other Sundays. Family Chapel is intended for the whole family to experience together, but unaccompanied children are also welcome if their adults cannot attend with them.
The theme for March is "Journey."

Sunday and Every Day: Taking it Home
Last Sunday the kids had a simple story about the promises we make to one another as Unitarian Universalists.
Discuss it at home:
- How does it feel to make a promise? What promises have you made?
- What promises have you made to one another as a family? How do those promises hold you together as a family?
- How does it feel when promises are broken or people fail to live up to their promises? What can we do to make amends and restore our trust?
General Assembly Registration Opens March 1st
General Assembly is the annual gathering of the UUA - a conference with thousands of UU's of all ages. This year GA will be held in Spokane, Washington. I hope many of you will join me there!
To learn more about General Assembly, explore the website and check out some of our GA information session we held last month to hear from folks who have attended past GA's.
