Our Safe Place

Music Sunday

Join us on May 10th at 9:15 and 11 am. Social issues are often portrayed as abstract concepts, without honoring those that the issues affect. Our Music Sunday service will hold up and honor the humanity of immigrants worldwide. Through music and poetry, we will share snapshots of immigrant journeys and some of the physical, emotional, and spiritual longings and challenges of those seeking a new home. This service features our own First Unitarian Chalice Singers along with guest musicians Stephen Bott on marimba and Kari Clifton on cello, and guest poet Jozer Guererro.

We warmly invite you to join us in person, or if you prefer, you can also participate online. We look forward to seeing you there! 

Our service streams at 9:15 am to Youtube and Zoom (meeting ID is 466-677-668 and the password is 454623).

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

Children’s Religious Exploration Programming

Religious Exploration News

(Thanks to Leslie Harvey, for the post) 

RE classes will be held during the first service, which will begin at 9:15. There will be no RE classes during the second service, which will begin at 11 am each week.

Families, please help us keep children on the carpet (out of the exit aisle) when they have toys out in the Peaceful Play Space. This is an important emergency exit that must stay clear at all times.

In the event of an emergency evacuation when children are in class, we will safely exit the building and reunite with families at the designated location: the parking lot on Lafayette, across the street and to the North. Please see Ms. Leslie with any questions you may have.

Mark your calendars! On May 17, First Unitarian will hold a Bridging Ceremony—a meaningful ritual that honors the important life transitions of our young people.

Whether a child is moving from preschool to kindergarten, kindergarten to first grade, middle school to high school, or graduating from high school into college or adulthood, this ceremony provides a special opportunity to mark the moment with reflection, celebration, and community support.

If there’s a young person in your life experiencing one of these transitions, we warmly invite them to take part in this tradition that recognizes both the excitement and challenges of growing up. Please contact Leslie @ msleslie@fusden.org to let you know!

Please note: May 17 will be an Intergenerational Service, with no RE classes offered. It is New Member Sunday and we will hold our Bridging Ceremony.

Mark your calendars! May 31 will be our RE Volunteer Appreciation and our last day of RE classes before we break for the summer.
