Welcome to the Baja 4!
In the spirit of the Search for Truth and Meaning, I invite you to explore these exciting options for children, youth, adults, and families!
Who Are We?
Representing Unitarian Universalists across southeastern Arizona, we love beyond belief and find inspiration from a wide array of spiritual, religious, and secular sources. We come together as a Baja 4 because we know we are stronger together.

We are the team that plans many of the programs, events, and activities at our congregations --and now for the Baja 4! If you're new with us, Welcome! And, don't let the title "Lifespan Faith Development" scare you! It is a common UU way to refer to the programs, events, and activities that occur in UU contexts. We are here to support YOU on your "free and responsible search for truth and meaning" no matter your age or where your journey leads you.

This Adventure will get you started on the UU Principles and UU basics. We'll play with Covenants, Chalice Lighting, your current ideas about what it means to be a UU, and more! If you're interested in a review or more depth about the Principles, this is where to begin.
Chalice Lightings to share!
IRL, C^3 (pronounced C cubed) is designed for older youth (12+ years) who are ready to really dig deep into the themes and ideas. I hope that you'll find some ideas, activities, and discussion prompts that make you think, act, or talk to others.
