Youth are a beloved part of our community

Youth group meets most Sunday evenings throughout the Church Year. Youth in our congregation also come to church for worship, or volunteer to help with RE (the younger kids LOVE when teens are there!!) Youth are invited to be a part of most aspects of South Church, and our hope is that they (like all of our congregants) feel empowered to help co-create a church community that feeds their spirits and inspires growth. We have had youth serving on associate teams, on justice committees, and as a part of worship creation! The sky is the limit, what is calling YOU? ♥️

2022-2023 Learning Journey to Alabama

This year, some of our high school youth (as well as a group of South Church Adults) will be learning about our country’s racialized history. We will explore why it is important to understand the Civil Rights Movement, the complex history of Unitarian Universalism’s engagement with racial justice, and we will strengthen our understanding of the evolution of racism in America from enslavement through to mass incarceration and a multitude of other contemporary issues today. As a part of this experience, there will be two trips to Alabama, one for youth and another for adult participants. Anyone is welcome to join us for the learning sessions over the next few months.

Volunteer Opportunities for Youth!

There are so many ways for youth to volunteer at church. You can serve in an associate program, help in Religious Education, participate in service projects and more! Let us know if you’d like to find places to volunteer, and we can help with paperwork to document your hours for school or other purposes. Contact Kirsten (kirsten@southchurch-uu.org) or Jen DD (jendeldeo@southchurch-uu.org)
