Magical Happenings for Oct.1, 2006
from Alice Anacheka-Nasemann, Director of Religious Education - ReligiousEducation@UCMH.org
Sunday School Classes:
- Nursery (0-2) Wilhelmina with Kelly Anne.
- Chalice Children (3-5): Teacher: Wendy, Assistant: Chelsea. Children will talk about church as a place that is made up of many people. They will create family pictures to place on a large puzzle of the church.
- Magical UU (grades 1-6): Teachers: Lauren & Jennifer, Assistant: Jackie. Students will prepare for the sorting hat, which will sort them next week into Ballou (kindness), Beatrix (creativity), Collymore (courage) or Olympia (persistence) houses. They will also create a coat of peace (not arms) to represent each house.
- World Religions (grades 7-9): Teacher: Alan. Students will creating marbleized covers for journals which they will use throughout the year to write about their experiences and thoughts as they learn about world religions. They will also think about what they would include if they were founding a religion.
COFFEE HOUR & CHILDCARE: Our babysitters will be available in the parish hall until 12:20 to play games and make simple crafts with kids for the first part of coffee hour.
REGISTRATION: If you have not yet done so, please register your kids for our religious education program. Registration forms are available in the parish hall. To pay for the materials fee, checks should be made out to Unitarian Church of Marlboro & Hudson.
FAMILY & ADULT EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES
PLAYGROUP: We are in the initial stages of forming a playgroup that will meet weekly at our church. Parents will have the opportunity to enjoy adult conversation and support while their young children play with one another. If you are interested, please contact our Religious Education Director, Alice Anacheka-Naseman - ReligiousEducation@UCMH.org.
SPIRITUAL PARENTING: Do you ever wonder how to answer your child’s questions about God? Would you like to develop family rituals that deepen spirituality? There will be an adult religious education program offered for parents to address these issues sometime this fall or in the early winter. If you are interested, please contact our Religious Education Director, Alice Anacheka-Nasemann - ReligiousEducation@UCMH.org.
ARTICULATING YOUR UU FAITH: Would you like a chance to learn more about Unitarian Universalism and develop your ability to describe our church and answer questions about our faith? David Johnson & Anacheka-Nasemann will co-lead the curriculum, “Articulating Your UU Faith.” If interested, contact our Religious Education Director, Alice Anacheka-Nasemann - ReligiousEducation@UCMH.org.
