As Unitarian Universalists, we commit ourselves to being of service in the world. Our children and youth often learn about social and environmental activism early on in their Sunday classes. And more important than learning about it, they are eager get involved and make a difference.

If you have not heard, our Junior Youth Group is busy trying to collect 5000 pounds of food by Easter for our local food bank. They still have 4600 pounds to go, and they need your help. Our children’s program is also busy putting their values into action. In the month of December, they collected more than $44 in during their penny drive to benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters. They also had a bake sale in which they raised another $107 for the same cause. They called it Kids Helping Kids!

Thank you for supporting our children and youth in their outreach efforts. It’s never too early to start!  Just a few Sundays ago, as I was drinking a can of seltzer water, a child four years old came in my office looked at the can and said “ recycle reuse”.
