Special Events in RE

The Religious Exploration Program offers a number of special events throughout the year which are open to EVERYONE and are intended to foster a greater level of interaction between the children, youth, and adults of our Fellowship. Here is a list of the events which will be held over the coming church year and a brief description of each. This list is growing all the time. Watch the Newsletter and the News and Notes for details.

All-Ages Services: These are service held throughout the year when children will be in the Sanctuary sharing the entire service with the adults.

RE  Services: At least twice during the year the RE program conducts the Sunday morning worship service.

Holiday Craft Fair: Spend the afternoon creating ornaments for our Fellowship Christmas tree and craft items to bring home to brighten your Holidays (usually held the first Sunday in December).

Secret Pal: One of the highlights of the year for our kids. They get matched with a “secret” adult pal; exchange clues about their identity and small gifts for three consecutive Sundays; then lunch with their new Pal when she/he is revealed to them. The excitement and joy this generates for the kids is contagious. Don’t miss this one!

The Magic in YoUU: Held in mid summer, using the setting of author J.K. Rowling’s Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, we explore the magic in each of us and the special talents we can all use to explore and improve our world, UU style.

Plaskett Creek Campout: Our annual weekend outing which gives us the opportunity to be with each other in a beautiful natural setting. It takes place in early August. Space is usually limited so sign up early!

Fund Raisers: At least once a year, RE conduct a general fund raiser for the Operating Fund. This year (2011-2012) we reprised our Valentine’s Day Cupcake sale and Cupcake Walk.
