Young People's Religious Union
Appearance
The Young People's Religious Union (YPRU) was a Unitarian Youth organization founded in 1896.[1] The organization celebrated by the Unitarian Young People's Sunday[2] held annual meetings beginning in 1918 through 1950.[3] Of note was the annual conference held at Star Island, part of the Isles of Shoals off the coast of Portsmouth, NH.[4][5] Topics discussed at meetings of the organization included Christian Patriotism.[6]
It was superseded by Liberal Religious Youth in 1953, as Unitarianism and Universalism came ever-closer together, but before the official consolidation in 1961.[1]
