UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST RELIGIOUS EDUCATION CATALOG
INTRODUCTION
Rev. Helen Zidowecki, Religious Education Consultant, Editor
This Catalog provides an overview of religious education materials, primarily
Unitarian and Universalist material, from the late 1930’s to the present. The
Catalog was published in 1993 and 1997, and initially put onto this web page in
1997. The expectation is that the Catalog will be updated every 3-6 months,
with new material and additional information on older material.
Obviously, not all of the resources that are used by Unitarian Universalist Religious Educators are included in this Catalog. The Catalog focuses on Unitarian Universalist material that:
May be found in churches as early as the 1940’s (and, indeed, much of it has been found in churches in Maine!);
Has been produced or publicized through the Unitarian Universalist Association Religious Education Department or its predecessors, including REACH packets and various paper and electronic listings of available materials;
Is available from the UUA Bookstore (in catalog under Religious Education);
Has come to the attention of the Editor, realizing that there are additional materials which may have escaped her attention or that someone else may have chosen to add.
In addition to the catalog material itself, there are sections related to the use of materials:
"Curriculum in Context" of the larger Religious Education Program.
"Using Older Material"
"Evaluating Curricula for Use in Your Church" based on Curriculum Mapping format.
The completeness of the information depends on the information available to the
Editor. Send comments about the Catalog itself or about specific items,
information that you would like to have considered for inclusion, and inquiries
