"Between Sundays" is a website designed to help parents and other adults answer religious questions raised by children and youth. What does it mean to be a Unitarian Universalist? How do our/your religious beliefs make a difference in the world? Lessons and activities to address specific questions at different ages are adapted from curricula published by the UUA, by independent authors, and by the Church of the Larger Fellowship. Some lessons and activities are suggested for a single age level; others are recommended for all ages.

You can browse the site by age level or subject category or search by key words. The categories are those used in curriculum development by the UUA Department of Religious Education. In addition, a Resources section provides informative material just for adults using the site. Don't be concerned about your own level of knowledge or depth of personal understanding. Learn along with your kids, explore religious concepts together -- model the "search for truth and meaning" in an open and loving environment. Check out the website www.uua.org/clf/betweensundays for fun and information.

Or look up the website www.uua/families . The covenant of this website states: With our congregations we will intentionally affirm the infinite variety of families, and provision and sustain them as they grow in spirit, love and justice. Links from this site include Families at Home, Community, Family Justice, Family Issues and many others. Families can also join the UUA Family Network and sign the Pledge of Nonviolence.

" Do not believe anything because it is said by an authority, or if it is said to come from angels, or from Gods, or from an inspired source. Believe it only if you have explored it in your own heart and mind and body and found it to be true. Work out your own path, through diligence." - Gautama Buddha

A bag basket with wheels is the way to go! I developed sympathy for Alpine cows on the steep uneven incline. Huey ushered in his next decade with clean-up and pick-up. You'd never know he's got a royal crown in the bag. - Linda

She's also a bit mysterious.)

Dick and Linda ready to head out.

I wish we had gotten a picture of the red pup. We all kept saying how there was not very much trash. I privately thought that since there was not much trash, then why did the universe have us out there. Then along came Rusty. Maybe he needed a new home or maybe I needed to perform an act of kindness. Whichever, I don't know. But the day was glorious, the company excellent, and all things considered, I was blessed. Thanks for the day! - Janet (Yes we've been working! Look, she's got dirt on her arm!)

I concluded some Litter Bugs are getting neater when I found an empty beer bottle with the cap screwed back on. Also wondered if the "Don't Mess with Texas" message might be getting through since there was less trash .... also less interesting trash. Didn't find any treasures. Maybe Sky needs to "salt" the road with some unusual trash to keep our interest level high - Carol
