About Thea Shapiro
Thea Shapiro, Director of Religious Education
Thea Shapiro is the Director of Religious Education.
I oversee the children’s religious education program and have been a religious educator for the past seven years.
Our program is based on the one room school house approach. Children of all ages work together. We focus on being in community and learning about what it means to be a Unitarian Universalist.
Our youth participate in Our Whole Lives (OWL ) and Coming of Age (COA).
I volunteer at a middle school camp, Different Drummer at Ferry Beach and I volunteer at the Boys and Girls Club in Lawrence MA. I am a grade 7-9 Owl facilitator, a level two certified Radiant Child Yoga instructor. I teach at the Essex Art Center in Lawrence MA . And I am studying to be an Interfaith Chaplin at Chaplaincy Institute of Maine.
I am also an artist. I live in Andover with my husband, daughter, dog and cat. And I have a son who is off at college in New York City.
