\Dear UU Parents and Guardians, 

We have been told directly by the UUA that we should NOT offer our OWL (Our Whole Lives) sexuality education courses online. That being said, would you potentially be interested in a facilitated support group called, "Parents as Primary Sex Educators"? 

If yes, would you please send me a message just saying something like, "Yes, I'd be interested"? I would like to gauge whether this is something which would be worthwhile to offer. I know you would obviously need more information to commit to something, but it would help me wrap my mind around this if you are interested in this topic. 

Email Chelsea [email protected] for Zoom or Discord links.

*Sunday School *

Approximately: 30 minute program geared towards K-5 but open to all ages. Sundays at 11:00AM.

*Middle and HS *

We are joining up with the Omaha youth groups. Wednesdays at 7:00PM.

We invite all Middle and High School students from Omaha and Lincoln to join us for discussion and community through this app: 'Would you rather' questions; Thoughts along our monthly Soul Matters themes; 'Big questions' related to UUism; and even a "Pet Page"! 

***Be aware that once joining Discord, it opens up the app to multiple pages which will need to be moderated by students themselves and their parents/guardians for security.

*Parent and Guardian Chat: *

The chance for parents and guardians to check in with me for 'open office hours.' Every other Thursday 8:00PM and every other Wednesday at NOON. (I close the meeting after 15 minutes if no one checks in.)

Next two chats are Wednesday Feb 10 and Thursday Feb 18.

Email Chelsea [email protected] for Zoom or Discord links.
