October Children’s Faith Formation

This month, we are exploring the theme of courage and what it means to move beyond simply feeling brave to putting our courage into action. Courage is not about never feeling afraid or uncertain. It is about making choices, speaking up, trying new things, and living our values even when doing so feels difficult or frightening. 

As Unitarian Universalists, our faith calls us to be people of courageous action. We are encouraged to boldly live our values, care for one another, seek truth, and work toward a more loving and just world. Courage is what helps us take the values we hold in our hearts and bring them into the way we live our lives. 

October 11: Being Courageous About Our True Selves

This week, we are exploring how to be courageous about our true selves and making “This Is Me” courage badges. As we do that, we will have the chance to celebrate LGBTQ+ History Month and National Coming Out Day as well as honor the many ways that LGBTQ+ people have courageously been their true selves.
