Minamahal na Mga Pamilya ng UUCMP,
This Sunday, our children will continue exploring the LEGO Values curriculum with a focus on Pluralism—a core Unitarian Universalist teaching.
Together, we’ll be highlighting that:Unitarian Universalists honor many spiritual practices.We are a pluralistic faith, meaning there’s no single “right” way to connect with community or the divine.Each person can find spiritual practices that are meaningful to them.Similar practices appear across many different religious traditions.We believe nearly every religion offers wisdom and inspiration.There’s room for many different spiritual paths in Unitarian Universalism.We listen with curiosity and respect, and we learn from each other.
Although I’ll be out of town this Sunday, our amazing team of caring teachers will be there to guide the children and ensure they have a safe, fun, and meaningful experience.
With gratitude,Shannon
Shannon Morrison (she/her)Director of Religious Exploration, UUCMP
