Youth Group (High School)
This group typically meets bi-monthly (often sharing pizza) to extend their learning of world religions and other teen-appropriate UU studies. They have visited different churches, and experienced worship services of neighboring faiths. The group periodocally discusses The Questing Year, the component of the Sheltering Spirit Curriculum written for this age group, which engages participants in four quests designed to help them seek and develop their own answers to deep life questions about human faith and the web of all existence. Connected through social action and spiritual search, the Mystery Quest, the Inner Quest, the Action Quest and the UU Quest are all challenging and fun. The class uses music and meditation to experience religious mystery, creates personal aliens and mirror boards for exploring self, runs a social action project to help others outside the church, and explores the lives of outstanding Unitarian Universalists through a reproducible booklet included in the basic text.
