RE+Registration+2010-11

** The Community Church of Chapel Hill Unitarian Universalist **
 * 2012-2013 Ministry for Children and Youth ** ** Program Registration **

= Welcome! There are 2 steps to registration: =
 * ** Step One: Register Your Child or Youth. **Secure online registration is available for this year for returning families. A Separate Form must be filled out for each child registered. Note: New families must register in person on Sunday morning. [|Click here for link for on-line registration form.]


 * ** Step Two: Register Yourself for Parent Cooperative. **Our program is a parent cooperative and parents are expected to participate.Click Here for Information and Sign Ups.

=Consider the 11:15 RE Program!= The 9:30 RE Program is very crowded. There is more room at 11:15. It is significantly less crowded. At 11:15 we have a new program for K-5th Grade called the Interdependent Web of Life which is a nature spirituality program led by Natalie Zucchino who is a wildlife educator and a passionate Unitarian Universalist. This will be a great class for kids who would rather spend more time outside and would like a small class. Overcrowding at 9:30 has the potential to negatively affect the quality of the program so please consider registering at 11:15 if you can.

=Cost of the Program= As you know, there is no registration fee for the Children's and Youth Program. However, families are expected to contribute financially to the church in the form of an annual financial pledge either as members or friends of the church. Families registered in the RE program will be contacted this year in the Annual Stewardship drive and asked to pledge. Your financial contribution to the church supports the RE program and pays for the staff and supplies that make the RE program possible as well as the many other programs of the church. Thank you for your strong and on-going support.
