Religious Education

First Unitarian Society of Westchester Religious Education - A Unique Religious Education Opportunity for Children and Youth and the Adults who lead them.

Our program year begins in September and concludes in June. Please visit us anytime, bring your children or come alone to scout us out. Religious Education classes coincide with the 11:15 Adult Service only. At the end of classes, children join the adults at the coffee service. About once a month, adults and children spend the first twenty minutes together in the Meeting Room. On most Sundays, our younger children begin with a brief Children’s Service, an age-appropriate spiritual and educational experience. Older classes use a ritual opening in their class groups. You can check our schedule by clicking on the calendar menu on this website.

Our Mission

The Religious Education Program at FUSW provides an extraordinary spiritual, intellectual, educational, and social experience for the children and youth in our congregation. Creating a safe and nurturing environment in which they feel free to learn together, develop their own theology, build community, and work for a better world with caring staff and volunteers. We also support parents and caregivers in their role as the primary religious educators of their children.
