Religious Exploration Committee
The Religious Exploration (RE) Committee is responsible for the overall direction of UUCF's RE program for children and youth, and plays the major role in deciding what curricula are offered and which polices guide the program on a weekly basis. The RE Committee reports to the Lay Minister for Religious Exploration to ensure the congregation's RE program goals are consistent with the overall congregational mission, vision, values, and strategic direction. The committee also works closely with the RE staff to offer guidance and support for program implementation.
There is also a Youth Ministry Committee that plans events and activities for UUCF's youth program.
