Families: Discover Welcoming Community

We always welcome new faces! If your family is exploring congregations, reach out to Ariel Smith-Iyer, Director of Multigenerational Community Building, at dre@mpuuc.org for additional information. We are always happy to discuss any aspects of our program with anyone who is interested!

Children’s Programming happens every 2nd and 3rd Sunday of the month. Children are invited to Classroom 1 in the Ockerman building for Children’s Chapel where we:

• circle up
• sing songs
• share our “glads and sads”
• practice mindfulness
• hear a story
• learn what it means to be Unitarian Universalist

On the second Sunday of each month we all begin in the service together at 10:00 a.m. Early in the program, we invite anyone “young or young at heart” to come forward for the Time for All Ages, when we offer a story or lesson that’s relatable to the kids.

Children are welcome at our service every Sunday. In addition to the Time for All Ages, there is a comfortable children’s area available in the back of the sanctuary for children and parents to worship together.

Featured here is a recent video of our annual Backpack Blessing, offered at the start of the school year, to remind our children and youth that they are loved here, that our love goes with them beyond the walls of this congregation and that they can come and receive love here anytime they need it.
