This Week in Religious Education
What is happening for children, youth, and families at OUUC
Happy Easter!
This Sunday is Easter, and I am so very sad to not be prepping an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids. But in its place I've organized a photo scavenger hunt (see below) and some other creative religious educators have organized a virtual Egg Hunt through congregational websites! I hope you all have fun with these.
The worship service at 10am this Sunday is meant for all ages. While families are spending Easter with one another, there will be no extra zoom calls for children or youth this Sunday. Have a Happy Easter!

A Virtual Easter "Egg" Hunt
Join us in a Easter “Egg” Scavenger Hunt! Post your pictures with the hashtag #ouuceasterhunt or email them to dre@ouuc.org. Pictures can be of literal objects or can represent intangible concepts.
