Coming of Age (COA) delves into the purpose and meaning of
UUism in the individual lives of our Sr. High students. Students are
paired with mentors from the congregation, and the program culminates in a
trip to the UUA in Boston. Through this process, students will be
encouraged to define their personal spirituality and will have the option to
share their journey with us.

Childrens Choir led by our Music Director, Kenny Smith. There are
several brief performances each year during the Sunday Service, and
