CYCORE (Children's and Youth Committee on Religious Education) has planned an exciting program this year.
This year we will be studying Native American legends and relationship with the Earth. We will tie these stories into the UU seven principles. Every week we will discuss a story and then do activities that emphasize the interconnectedness between us, the animals, and the Earth.
Carol Quintero, our director, is bi-lingual (Spanish) and also has considerable training and experience in film-making. CYCORE will integrate those skills as part of the religious education program.
