On-line Registration At Unitarian Universalist Church of Lexington our goal is to have a Lifespan program. We are always learning and growing, no matter our age. This page is about our program for children and youth. For adult religious education options, see Adult Programs. What Religious Exploration, (RE), Offers We offer Religious Exploration, (or as some prefer, Religious Education), classes for children, youth and teens during the Sunday morning service. For Preschool through 8th grade, the children begin in the service and experience the church worship elements like singing hymns, lighting the chalice and community greeting. About 15 minutes after the start of the service the children are released to their RE studios. Classroom time ends about 15 minutes after the Sunday service ends. This class time allows for relationship building and hands-on experiences. After RE is over, the children can be picked up at their Studio. Preschool and Kindergarten are picked up at the top of the stairs. High school and middle school may go when their classes are over. High Schoolers often meet during the Sunday services in the Fellowship House (old brick building,) upstairs. We encourage parents visiting with young children to meet their teachers, (Leaders and Guides), and accompany the children to the classroom area to ease in transition and increase comfort level. The Leaders & Guides like to meet the new families as well. UUCL has a Child and Youth
Protection Policy. We take every step to be a Safe Congregation. All of the leaders &
guides have undergone a background check and have been active participants in our church for at least six months. Each month brings new activities and celebrations, check our church newsletter "The Uniview" for more details! We have creative and interactive ideas for the months ahead. Thank you for your interest in Children's and Youth RE; the children truly are our future.
