link on Friday.
Senior Youth Book Group: We are forming an optional Senior Youth book group to read Stamped: Racism, Antiracism and You: A Remix of the National Book Award-winning Stamped from the Beginning, remixed by Jason Reynolds and written with teens in mind. Please let us know if your Senior Youth would like to participate. We will meet at 7:30 pm, and the date will be determined based on the schedules of those who sign up.
UU Wellspring for Youth: Beginning Monday, 2/1, at 7:30, we’re excited to have the opportunity to participate in piloting UU Wellspring for Youth! The class is based on the 6 UU Sources and on helping youth deepen their spirituality. The class meets for 8 consecutive weeks. Our co-facilitators are youth advisors Aaron Tyo and Robin Ahearn, who’ve both completed yearlong classes in the adult Wellspring course. As one of only three UU Wellspring for Youth pilot classes being offered, there is no fee to the church or participants, and we get to provide feedback which will help shape the final curriculum! If you have any questions, contact Robin at dlre@uuschenectady.org or Aaron at atyo416@yahoo.com. Please let us know if your youth would like to participate by Monday, 1/25.
Please remember to wear a mask, socially distance, take time outside, and wash your hands! -Robin Ahearn, Director of Lifespan Religious Education
