Junior Youth Group

Middle school is a busy time for youth. They've got plenty of homework and activities and they need time with friends. The Unitarian Church of Sharon offers a variety of unique programs for youth that are intended to promote the development of a sense of wholeness and purpose in life and to encourage youth to have fun together and support each other during this challenging time.

Junior Youth Group
What is it? A religious education class for youth, Sundays at 10:15.

Topic: Social justice

What about it?
What are our visions of a better world?
What problems does our world face?
What can we do to make the world a better place?
How can we work together toward a common vision?
Do something to make a difference!
What happened within us and around us -- when we took action in the world?

Teachers: Two teachers work with the youth each Sunday. Teaching team includes Glenn Rivard, Gare Reid, Suzi Peck, Rick Dumont, and Vicki Harchik.
