“Yesterday Teaches Tomorrow” (in person at 9 & 11 a.m.; online at 11 a.m.)

January 15, 2023
Dr. Glen Thomas Rideout, Franco Holder, Rev. Jen Crow

Time and time again, in stories and scriptures and songs, ancestors have left lessons for building beloved community. Though they come in all languages and expressions, the wisdom persists: to resist materialism and hold on to what truly matters; to unshackle from habits of needless prejudice; to put down the weapons we store in our hands and hearts and study war no more. How much comfort can we take that we aren’t nearly the first generation to struggle to live into these communal ways? And what’s our part in the progress?

Join us this Sunday, Jan. 15 as we continue exploring our January worship theme, Revolution.

ORDER OF SERVICE: available as a google doc and on this page (screen reader & mobile friendly version) by Friday.

OFFERING: Give via our online giving portal, or CashApp. Make sure to designate that it’s for the “Offering Plate” fund.

A Place to Start – in person, immediately after both services 
Facilitated by one of our members, A Place to Start is a brief, casual orientation to Unitarian Universalism and First Universalist Church. During this 40-minute class, participants will learn about the foundations of our faith tradition and opportunities to get involved. If you attend, or can’t make it but would like a staff member to reach out, please fill out the Visitor Connect form so we can follow up with you. Thank you!

We host A Place to Start every first and third Sundays of the month, immediately after both worship services. The facilitator will be holding a green “Here is A Place to Start” sign at the front of the sanctuary after the worship services. We look forward to welcoming you!
