Connecting Students in College Towns
December 15, 2007
Congregations that have sent young adults off to college can help them stay connected to their faith by notifying a Unitarian Universalist (UU) congregation in that new location. Greeting cards for that purpose are available from the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) Bookstore. Bridging cards are to be filled out by a youth advisor, religious educator, etc., and sent to the congregation nearest the college. The cards include contact information for the student plus ways to welcome that young adult into the new church community. A pack of 10 bridging cards is $10. Item No. 1133 at the UUA Bookstore or 800-215-9076. Check the UUA Directory for congregation addresses. See also the August 2001 InterConnections article "Reach Out to Students with Food, Friendship."For more information contact interconnections @ uua.org.
