The African proverb "It takes a whole village to raise a child" summarizes our prevailing attitudes about religious education. We teach children, from toddlers to high schoolers, to esteem themselves and others, to value the beliefs and practices of the world's religions -- including Unitarian and Universalist heritage -- and to become socially responsible citizens who participate in projects that build upon awareness of the needs of others.

We also offer a rich variety of adult programs to foster the spiritual and personal growth and learning of all members of our congregations. Through religious education, we offer youth and adults not a narrow doctrine but a foundation that will help them make wise decisions about their own beliefs and values. We also provide a safe and nurturing place to exercise those beliefs.

God is all different colors.	God is in your heart.
For me, God is a five-year-old little girl. For my cat, God is a cat.	God is breath.
God is the curiosity inside you.	I do not believe in God. I can think what I want. I don't believe in the devil either.
God is the biggest camera ever made.	God is a big woman who loves us all.
He is a she and a he.	He never lies, he has intelligence, and most of all he loves me.
God can grant love but not a million dollars.
