Every Sunday, youth will have an opportunity to learn about the teachings at the Center and other religions using curriculum from The Golden Thread of Truth by Marjorie Helms Karish and enjoy participating in spiritual craft activities.
For generations, parents from all religious beliefs, cultures and lifestyles have shared stories with their children to teach life lessons. Stories from Judaism, Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, Christianity and Native American traditions support the same underlying messages and demonstrate “The Golden Thread of Truth” in the world’s teachings: Love thy neighbor. You reap what you sow. We are stewards of the earth and each other. Treat others as you would like to be treated.
Whether you are able to join us in the classroom Sundays at 11am, or you participate from home by following along with our free recorded lessons, our intention is to create a fun, interactive, and age-appropriate experience to learn about world religions and spiritual teachings. We’ll use crafts to help deepen children’s understanding of the message of each story, along with additional material for Tweens and Teens to help them better understand the impact of these lessons on their individual lives. For illustration, we use science, nature, history, art and parables from all the world’s religions and cultures.
