8th-9th Grade
Coming of Age is a program that explores Unitarian Universalist beliefs, history, worship and social concerns, as well as the challenges and responsibilites of growing up.
Youth are encouraged to express their views about personal philosophy and theology using reflection, journaling and discussion. This age is a time when issues of "What do I believe?" and "What will I contribute to the world?" become vitally important. An adolescent is often asking probing questions as to the meaning of life, the nature of truth, and what in the universe is worthy of trust and commitment.
This program gives them a context for exploring those ideas.
