KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – The Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County has announced its new Religious Exploration program for children.

Beginning Sunday, Dec. 4, two classes will be offered that explore various religious traditions.

Unitarian Universalist values of love, acceptance, self-expression, social justice and the worth of all will be a part of the curricula.

Classes for younger children – pre-kindergarten to junior high – will be based on popular children’s books.

For older youth, from junior high through high school, the emphasis will be on “Qualities of a Justice Maker,” which will emphasize leadership skills and how young people can engage in social justice work.

Families who are in search of nonjudgmental religious education for their children are encouraged to attend.

The classes will take place during the regular service of the Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County.

Parents are invited to attend the service which starts at 11 a.m. at the church, located at 3810 Main St. in Kelseyville.

Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion with Jewish-Christian roots. It has no creed. It affirms the worth of human beings, advocates freedom of belief and the search for advancing truth, and offers a warm, open, supportive community for people who believe that ethical living is the supreme witness of religion.
