Children's
Religious
Education		 Welcome to the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Pottstown Religious Education Program. We are looking forward to a year of fun and excitement as we begin our school year in September.
This year we have two classes for children in kindergarten through grade six plus a pre-k class for pre-school age children. A nursery program will be available for the toddlers. Please join us on our journey this year where children explore, learn and enjoy the friendships they build this year at UUFP in the RE Sunday school program!

Family Chalice Lighting:
I am the Earth and the Earth is me. Each blade of grass, each honey tree,
Each bit of mud, and stick and stone is blood and muscle, skin and bone.
And just as I need every bit of me to make my body fit,
So Earth needs grass and stone and tree and things that grow here naturally.
As long as life, as dear, as free, I am the Earth, and the Earth is me.
