We recommend that you purchase the 2020-21 curriculum series as part of our "Full Member Subscription," which includes the small group and worship packets and supports a full theme-based church model. But the 2020-21 RE packet subscription can be purchased separately (click below) or bundled with our small group and worship packets at a discount.​ You can also purchase individual monthly packets here.

Crossing Paths - A “Neighboring Faiths” Curriculum from Soul Matters

Crossing Paths is a Soul Matters twist on the popular UU youth curriculum, Neighboring Faiths.  We offer the curriculum in two different formats: 
  • Our theme-based version aligns each visit and faith tradition with our monthly themes.  
  • Our non-themed version is one that any of our UU churches can use to enrich our youth ministry programs and is not based on themes.

On The Road Together - Monthly Youth Group Resource Packets

A monthly high school youth packet filled with creative, high quality worship, games, meditations, reflections, stories, art engagement, discussion starters, etc. Think of it as toolbox full of building blocks to help you create the experiences that are right for your youth and your setting. Each packet is is built around our monthly Soul Matters themes to ensure that your youth are part of the wider theme conversation happening all around your congregation.

Soulful Home - Supporting Families as They Explore the Sacred in Everyday Spaces

Soulful Home is a monthly guide that helps parents create faith-full, sacred space in their daily lives. Through their church's subscription or by subscribing directly, families get a packet at the beginning of each month that is organized around eight distinct family "spaces" with ideas and resources to fill those spaces with UU theme-based exploration. 

Collaboration Circles & Resources

We offer a number of opportunities for RE leaders to collaborate and support each other, including online Facebook groups, Pinterest pages and monthly implementation labs. Check out all of them by clicking below!

Webinars

We offer a growing number of RE related webinars. Some are fee-based but many are free. Our vision is to use our webinars to bring in outside expertise but also to make room for Soul Matters members to share their work and ideas with each other.
