“In a word, the great end is to awaken the soul,

to excite and cherish spiritual life.”

William Ellery Channing

WELCOME to RELIGIOUS EDUCATION in JPD!

Religious Education in the Joseph Priestley District is considered to be life long.  As a life long engagement, it has many dimensions.   It is the work of the JPD lifespan team to provide as many opportunities as possible for the religious education lay and professional leadership of JPD.  We do this through offering the UUA Renaissance Modules, leadership development workshops, team building workshops, OWL Trainings, mission building programs, consultations, and coaching.  We are also available to lead Start-Up weekends and Covenant weekends for congregations and their new staff, facilitate retreat weekends, assist with conflicts as they arise, lead visioning weekends and accept invitations to preach.
