Learning Together: Love Who You Are
Saturday, September 26, 2020 from 4-5 PM PT
|
Join us for our Multi-generational religious education experience. Our faith reminds us that we renew ourselves by being true to ourselves. This is captured most directly in our celebration of the “worth and dignity of every person.” It’s also captured in the words of the Joseph Campbell quote so many UUs love to quote: “Follow your bliss.”
|
So what’s one of the ways our faith guides us into becoming a people of renewal?
It tells us, “Love who you are!”
If you have any questions or would like to help lead an activity, please let us know.

Learning Together - Love Who You Are
by ARIEL SUBLETT on MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2020
Hello everybody! Thanks to those of you who joined us on Saturday for Learning Together. During our last session with the theme of Renewal, we focused on how we are renewed by loving who we are, we did a meditation where we visualized a path to a treasure box with a key given by a guide, and we played a game called “Our Favorites” and drew pictures of what we love to do. This was a simple, fun game you can try with your family or friends. Everyone has only a minute to draw their favorite things and others had to guess what their favorites were.
Here are some additional resources to use with your families:

With spirit, spunk, and a great passion for the sport, Marcenia struggled to overcome the objections of family, friends, and coaches, who felt a girl had no place in the field. When she finally won a position in a baseball summer camp sponsored by the St. Louis Cardinals, Marcenia was on her way to catching her dream...” – from the website https://www.storylineonline.net/books/catching-the-moon-the-story-of-a-young-girlsbaseball-dream/
