Many parents seek a religious experience which provides their children with a sense of belonging, meaning, and spiritual identity. They ask questions such as:What will I teach my children about the world? What values do I wish to instill in my children? What spiritual community best reflects my beliefs?
The Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Wyoming Valley provides support to parents as they and their children embark on their spiritual journeys. We believe that parents are a child’s primary religious educator. Our Religious Education program aims to supplement and encourage parents and families with additional opportunities to connect, seek, share, and grow.

Parent Participation
Faith Development classes are just a starting point for the children. Parents are encouraged to find out what’s going on in the classroom and continue the discussions and activities at home. Parents are welcome to drop in the classroom or discuss any aspect of faith development with the Faith Development (FD) Committee or the Director Religious Education. We value your input! Parents are also asked to participate in the program through volunteer teaching, curriculum planning, social action projects, and multi-generational events.
