Fascists Are Coming

Rev. Mike Morran

Please join us on
Sunday, February 4th at 10:30 am.
The word fascist is in the news a lot lately, used by both the left and the right to describe the other. We will take a hard look at fascism this morning, some history, some observations, some analysis, and some reflection on liberal values.

We extend a warm invitation to you to join
us in person, or if you prefer, you can also participate online.

Our service streams to
Youtube
and Zoom (
meeting ID is 466-677-668 and the password is 454623
).

Join us for coffee in the Community Room after the service.

Giving in Action – Women’s Bean Project

Two times a month First Unitarian dedicates our Sunday offering to organizations and causes happening outside of our sanctuary. This is our commitment to put our faith into action. This weeks recipient of our offering is
Women’s Bean Project
.

Women’s Bean Project is a nonprofit social enterprise. We have a food manufacturing business tied directly to our transitional employment program. One cannot exist without the other. We believe all women have the power to transform their lives through employment. So we hire women who are chronically unemployed and we teach them to work making nourishing products that we sell across the U.S. Through their work at Women’s Bean Project, women learn to stand tall, find their purpose and break the cycle of poverty. Because when you change a woman’s life, you change her family’s life.

Whole SoUUl Studio This Week – Being an Anti-Fascist

We will gather in the sanctuary at
12:00 on February 4th
to learn, explore, share, and grow together for about 45 minutes. Facilitated by Rev. Mike, this month we will contemplate Being an Anti-Fascist. Whole SoUUl Studio is intended to be connective for all our members and friends!

First Unitarian Stewardship Campaign Needs You!

It’s that time of the year again – our annual stewardship campaign is getting underway. This year’s theme is “Growing Together, Giving Together.” This theme expresses what we are all about.

After several years of dealing with the many challenges that occurred due to the COVID pandemic, our church community has come back together stronger and more prepared for our future. Church programs are up and running, and the sanctuary chairs are filling up each Sunday. This is the perfect time for all of us to renew our commitment to this shared community, through our willingness to contribute time and financial resources so it can thrive.

The annual stewardship campaign is the primary funding source that supports our amazing staff, building, programming and everything else that happens at Firs
