2008 – 2009 AUUF RE Program Statement by Terri Albrecht-Schmitt DRE Statement: As DRE for the AUUF, I will maintain the quality of RE for all participants and will strive to increase it as I am able. I am a facilitator of the Religious Education service for AUUF, and as such I intend to increase the numbers of those helping in some manner to better integrate the adults and children into a multigenerational community of faith. Goals for the RE program: * Maintain or increase the quality of RE classes * Serve as a liaison between parents and teachers, kids and AUUF members, etc * Provide leadership and assistance as needed for the teachers and kids * Develop a rotational program of curricula that can be maintained for years to come Objectives for the kids: * Create a community of faith development for all the ages together * Have them grow in understanding of what it means to be a UU * Provide enough spiritual and religious essence to the program that graduates of it will have a “rock of faith” as young adults to rely on Objectives for the teachers: * See that they are being supported enough to have their own faith development occur * Increase awareness in AUUF about the need for RE involvement * Foster an environment where teacher and learner are both nurturers of UU beliefs and ritual
