United Parish of Lunenburg believes that an active faith is developed in a learning environment that teaches
compassion through involvement with others. In this atmosphere we all experience our church as an extended family, which
is a loving, fun, forgiving, and accepting community.
Developing and promoting youth activities is important at the United Parish, and so we have a near-full-time
Education Coordinator. UPL offers activities for our younger members every Sunday, and often on weekends. Each group offers actives that are geared to make the lessons age-appropriate educational as well as fun. The
more popular activities are:
Sunday School (grades pre-K to 6)
- meets at 9AM in the Andrew Hall chapel for singing, sharing information,
and special programs
- classes take place after chapel time, with volunteer teachers (rotational basis)
- classes are grouped according to age
- classes follow a planned curriculum, using themes of music, story telling,
- computer skills, art, cooking, science, and drama as
methods to encourage
- the students' different aptitudes
Middle School (grades 7-8)
Young people make a growth transition as they develop more independence, appropriate social skils, and greater Christian learning.
