Learning
Learning All Our Lives
In a program of lifespan learning, we offer children, youth and adults an opportunity to explore issues, reflect on ideas and learn new skills within a nurturing community. We encourage:
- Ethical growth—internalizing and acting on values like justice, equity and compassion.
- Social growth—connecting with people of all ages on a deep level.
- Spiritual growth—feeling a connection with the sacred within and beyond.
The Director of Religious Education, with the help of the Religious Education (RE) Team oversee the education of children and youth, while the Minister, with the aid of the Adult Education and Enrichment Team, plan and execute learning programs for adults. CRE is provided during our Sunday services, including nursery care for infants and toddlers, next door at Chalice House.
More info to come about our current CRE programs soon.
