Religious Exploration Update – April 23, 2026

Families, please help us keep children on the carpet (out of the exit aisle) when they have toys out in the Peaceful Play Space. This is an important emergency exit that must stay clear at all times.

In the event of an emergency evacuation when children are in class, we will safely exit the building and reunite with families at the designated location: the parking lot on Lafayette, across the street, and to the North. Please see Ms. Leslie with any questions you may have.

Mark your calendars! On May 17, First Unitarian will hold a Bridging Ceremony—a meaningful ritual that honors the important life transitions of our young people.

Whether a child is moving from preschool to kindergarten, from kindergarten to first grade, from middle school to high school, or graduating from high school to college or adulthood, this ceremony provides a special opportunity to mark the moment with reflection, celebration, and community support.

If there’s a young person in your life experiencing one of these transitions, we warmly invite them to take part in this tradition that recognizes both the excitement and challenges of growing up. Please contact Leslie to let her know!

Please note: May 17 will be an Intergenerational Service, with no RE classes offered. It is New Member Sunday, and we will hold our Bridging Ceremony.

Mark your calendars! May 31 will be our RE Volunteer Appreciation and our last day of RE classes before we break for the summer.
