OUUC is a welcoming and multigenerational congregation. Children are included and welcome in worship and community events. Additionally, we have programs for children, youth, families, and intentionally all-ages learning opportunities.
If you would like to be added to an email list for information on family or children’s events and activities at OUUC, please contact our RE Assistant.
What to Expect on Sunday Mornings:
Children of all ages are welcome in the worship service, and we have a comfy corner with bean bag chairs and fidgets and coloring sheets, if you like. We also have nursery care for children under 4 years of age, and a Spirit Play class for children 4-10 years old that happens during the worship service. It is up to each family how they want to participate on Sunday mornings, and moving back and forth between the options is always fine as well. Parents are welcome to stay with children in class or the nursery, or leave them there and worship.
Older children, those in Middle and High School, have Youth Programs at 12:30.
Here is more about the Sunday morning program, Spirit Play:
