Children and Youth

"The great end in religious instruction is not to stamp our minds irresistibly upon the young but to stir up their own." 
~Rev. William Ellery Channing (1780-1842), father of American Unitarianism

At Fourth Unitarian Society of Westchester, we see it as our task to nurture religious development. Our respect for the children teaches them respect -- for themselves, for others, and for this fragile interdependent web of which we are a part.  

Religious Education classes take place most Sunday mornings. The beginning of worship service is for the whole family; children 3 - 5 years old go to their classes at approximately 10:45.
