Crossing Paths is a religious exploration class for youth in grades 5th - 8th that are interested in learning about different religions in a secular way. We UUs believe that all spiritual paths are valid and deserving of our respect. This curriculum is meant to foster knowledge and tolerance of the many belief systems that make up the beautiful tapestry of culture all around us.
For the rest of February and part of February we will learn about the history and customs of Islam. We'll dive into holy books, rituals, and traditional foods while welcoming special guests from our community to talk about how they practice and what their faiths means to them.
Then we will take a field trip to a faith center. Students are encouraged to attend all the classes so they can keep up with the lessons. Please reach out to Aimee Johnson if you need to make up a class or have questions about the materials.
***This event is only open to RE youth, and their family, enrolled in Crossing Paths.***
