Our Lifespan Religious Education Is for Everyone!

Religious Education at the First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco offers programming for all ages, to enrich lives intellectually, spiritually, and practically. View our RE Brochure for Children, Youth and Families online or pick up a copy at the church office.   The brochure lists class descriptions, schedule, and everything you need to know about our program.

Religious Education for All

Many of our programs are designed to be enjoyed by participants of any age. At 10:00 on the first Sunday of the month is Sing-Along in the Chapel with Carolyn Jayne on guitar and Eric Shackleford on bass.  Yes, all ages of Unitarian Universalists can sing and UU songs are fun!

Art for Everyone is offered at 10:00 on the third Sunday of the month.  Our three art teachers, Theda Burke, Barbara Sizelove, and Kristen Stephens prepare a different art experience each month.  During the past year they offered clay, watercolor, print-making, puppet- making and lots more. 

Adult Religious Education

Check out the Adult RE web pages where you will find a fascinating array of adult courses to choose from this year.  There are classes on theology, health care policy, ethical eating, religious history and more. Many of the courses have been developed by the instructors, most of them experts in their fields.  Pre-registration for all courses is advised. You can register online from the link above.  Paper copies of the class descriptions and schedules are also available at the church office.

Sunday Morning Programming for Children and Youth

We have designed a well-rounded program to give children, youth, and their families a rich religious experience that will enhance their daily lives and guide them as they make future decisions. 

Our program is growing and thriving.  It offers a wide variety of experiences to all participants.  Our policy of cooperation encourages parents and congregants to work with our professional staff to present the best programming possible.  Parent and congregant volunteer time makes the difference!

Your children and you have a variety of programs and activities to choose from:  classes, worship, youth choir, visual arts, social justice activities, Child Dedication, Coming Of Age, Rite of Passage, Our Whole Lives (OWL), and much more. 

We provide a safe and caring environment for your children and age appropriate programming for all our children and youth.     

Sunday programs begin at 10:00 and continue until 12:15.  The Early childhood room for children ages 0 to 5 is open from 9:45 to 12:30 and has instruction for preschool children beginning at 11:15. 

Our youth social program, YRUU, meets in the afternoons and evenings.  For more information on youth programs contact the Religious Education office and join the youth Yahoo group.
