YFM LESSON RECAP OF THE WEEK
We started the exploration of the Power of Understanding for our third year. Our YFM program is based upon a yearly schedule of studying the 12 Powers for each of the months. It is an interesting challenge to continually study the same topic repeatedly. Yet it is also a methodology for developing the Understanding of each Power. Sometimes we dive a bit deeper on the Power and something we step sideways to look at it differently. Which is all a process of Understanding. This year, we again are using the symbol and practice of a spiral. Because by following the spiralic path inward we can gain more Understanding of ourselves and our relationship with God and the Divine. Then we can walk that same pathway outward towards connecting with others through Love, Curiosity, Playfulness, and Gratitude (LCPG). We can use this same cyclical process of LCPG to work through a misUnderstanding of another.

ABOUT UCP'S YFM PROGRAM
We invite you to join us at Unity Center of Peace on Sundays at 11:00am with your younger family members. While you enjoy our Celebration Service in the sanctuary, they will benefit from participating in our robust, loving, nurturing curriculum for children and youth. All programs are age-appropriate and are led by our carefully selected, and fully background checked, Spiritual Education staff members.
Our YFM rooms are in the upstairs part of the building and Sunday School resides from 11am-12:10pm. Please be sure to sign your child in using the clipboard on the door. Near the end of service, the children will be brought downstairs by the Youth Ed teacher to give a brief announcement about what they did and what they learned and to receive a special UCP blessing by the minister and congretation. We currently do not have a program for teens (Y.O.U). Teens are encouraged to sit in the Sunday Service with their parents at this time.
OUR YFM VISION STATEMENT
We envision young people growing up with a clear grasp of their spiritual nature and power, living from their ability to make a difference in the world, to express love, to choose kindness, to relate authentically, and to model spiritual values.
