Ten local girls have completed the Religion in Life program at the Unitarian Universalist Church at Washington Crossing (UUCWC).
Religion in Life, the Unitarian Universalist Association’s religious award program designed for Girl Scouts but open to all girls, has more than 40 requirements involving religious study, service, and self-exploration.
The girls’ activities included learning about religious diversity by visiting Masjidut-Taqwa, a mosque in Trenton; conducting an accessibility survey of the UUCWC building; and hearing of the Depression-era Girl Scout experiences of Newtown resident Ruth Samsel. The girls formed strong bonds with one another and built self-confidence while learning about their religious and Girl Scout heritages.
The girls who completed the program represent grades three through 10, three Girl Scout councils, and nine troops.
