Looking to the future ...
A new integrated curriculum for
Unitarian Universalists of all ages
is being developed by the
UUA’s Lifespan Faith Development Staff Group.
WATCH FOR WAYS TO APPLY THIS TO CLF/RE!!
| INTEGRATING FOUR STRANDS:
- Ethical development
- Spiritual development
- Unitarian Universalist identity
- Faith development
|
Vision Statement: We envision children, youth, and adults
who:
- know that they are lovable beings of infinite worth,
imbued with powers of the soul, and obligated to use their
gifts, talents, and potentials in the service of life;
- affirm that they are part of a Unitarian Universalist
religious heritage and community of faith that has value
and provides resources for living;
- accept that they are responsible for the stewardship and
creative transformation of their religious heritage and
community of faith;
- realize that they are moral agents, capable of making
a difference in the lives of other people, challenging structures
of social and political oppression, promoting the health
and well-being of the planet, acting in the service of diversity,
justice and compassion;
- recognize the need for community, affirming the importance
of families, relationships and connections between and among
the generations;
- appreciate the value of spiritual practice as a means
of deepening faith and integrating beliefs and values with
everyday life;
- experience hope, joy, mystery, healing, and personal
transformation in the midst of life’s challenges.
