For our children 5 and older we are now offering Religious Exploration RE, at 9:00 am before the Sunday church service. We follow the curriculum, Souls Matters, which is also used for many of the Sunday services.  The children are with 2 adults in the upstairs for their class program.  Parents can enjoy coffee and conversation during that time or attend a committee meeting or meditation.   The children join their adults for the service or sit at the children’s activity table.  There is always a children’s chalice lighting and a Story for All Ages.
Younger children can be with their parents or spend time at the children’s activity table joined by our RE assistant during the service. Quiet activities are offered such as coloring or other craft projects.
Summertime we plan more outdoor activities. If your family is interested in being part of these fun projects, please connect with Kathy.

Nursery care is available every Sunday, for the very youngest infants up to the age of preschool.  Our Religious Exploration assistant, Katie, is recent graduate of Brattleboro Union High School.

For teens there is a chance to join with the young people in other local congregations to do service work at all souls and to attend special events.

Parents with children of any age should contact a member of the RE Committee to discuss their children’s needs and preferences.

Adults will find a women’s group, which meets the 4th Saturday each month 9:30 to 11:30, small group ministry, and a variety of workshops, discussions, films, and talks on many topics. There are number of affiliated groups besides those mentioned which provide a chance for exploration including book groups.
