CRE Summer Program: Magic Summer
For our summer program, Kitsap Unitarian Universalist Fellowship is using Soul Matters Magic Summer, created by Soul Matters Director of RE Resources, Katie Covey. Each lesson includes three components based on Katie Covey's three magic "S's": Service to Others, Silence and Mindfulness, and Sunshine and Movement. It's our belief that each of these “S’s” act as magic doorways, enabling our children and our families to connect to their deepest inner lives, their community and to the joy of life around them.
Here is the schedule of activities for each Sunday:
