KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – The Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County invites families to learn more about its religious education program.
The new religious education year will begin on Sunday, Sept. 19.
The service begins at 10 a.m. at the Kelseyville Senior Center, 5245 Third St. in Kelseyville.
The curriculum which will be presented is entitled, “We Believe: Learning and Living our Unitarian Universalist Principles.”
Children from kindergarten through sixth grades are invited to participate in activities which highlight the seven principles that guide this denomination.
Director of Religious Education Beth Ely says, “Unitarian Universalism is a non-creedal religion. But we have seven principles which guide our study and actions. We look forward to introducing these principles to the children so they may live their lives in accordance with them.”
In children’s language, the principles include:
“We believe that each and every person is important.”
“We believe that all people should be treated fairly and kindly.”
“We believe that we should accept one another and keep on learning together.”
“We believe that each person must be free to search for what is true and right in life.”
“We believe that all persons should have a vote about the things that concern them.”
“We believe in working for a peaceful, fair, and free world.”
“We believe in caring for our planet earth, the home we share with all living things.”
