This month, our students will continue their exciting Passport to Spirituality journey as they explore different religions and cultures from around the world. Through engaging lessons, discussions, stories, and hands-on activities, students will learn about the beliefs, traditions, and values of diverse communities while developing respect and appreciation for people of all backgrounds.
Our next destination is Africa, where students will explore the Yoruba religion, one of the world's oldest Indigenous spiritual traditions. They will learn about the importance of family, community, respect for elders, and caring for one another. Lessons will also introduce students to traditional stories that teach valuable life lessons.
Our Religious Education Program for children and youth, is facilitated by Danielle Lewis, our Director of Religious Education, and a team of dedicated classroom leaders. Our Religious Education Program for children and youth takes place in our classrooms and Nursery. Children and adults begin worship together in the Sanctuary at 10:30am. After the Time for All Ages element of our Sunday Service, the children and their teachers move on to the classrooms for their activities, for the remainder of the Worship time.
