Religious Exploration Curriculum Information
Westside is currently in a period of transition with our Religious Education Staff. This spring we will be offering programming for children on some Sundays. Please refer to our newsletter for details. There will be no programming for children or youth during the months of July and August. We hope to open our nursery and begin RE programming again in September of 2022. Thank you for your patience! If you would like to be involved in volunteering for our Religious Exploration program please contact our office: office@wsuu.org.
The Nursery will be closed throughout 2021. We will re-evaluate this decision in 2022.
Children of all ages are welcome in the service. There is a quiet room in the loft of the Sanctuary for those families who want privacy. Everyone (children and adults) must wear a mask at all times at Westside except for children under 2 years of age. Please see Westside’s COVID-19 Policy specific details and exceptions.
Youth Group: Ninth through Twelfth Grades
Discussion and experience are central to Youth Group as youth explore their values and beliefs. Youth Group emphasizes learning, social action, worship, leadership, and community building. Each session includes opportunities for discussion, self-expression, and development of personal faith statements and spiritual practices. In 2021-22 this group is likely to meet two Sunday evenings a month in person, at church, depending upon board decisions regarding in person meetings based on COVID-19 concerns.
