This Land

Michael DeSantis

Join us on October 12th at 10:30 am. On this Indigenous Peoples’ Day weekend, we reflect on what it means to live and work on stolen land. In particular, how does that reality shape our duty as a people of faith committed to justice?

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 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. 

October 12, 2025; Congregational Forum on Returning to Two Sunday Services

October 19, 2025: Congregational Special Meeting to Approve Two Services Proposal

12:00 noon in the Sanctuary

(Thanks to Ed Dieringer for the post)

Living our UU values through direct action on urgent social justice issues and

developing greater connections within and beyond our church walls have resulted in the continued growth of First Unitarian’s membership and program attendance. One of the many issues we must reckon with is that our Sunday services and activities are frequently at maximum capacity. On October 12, the Board of Trustees will hold an open forum for further discussion on the motion to prepare a plan for the return to two Sunday services in April 2026. (Read the motion here.) The following Sunday, October 19, the Board will present this motion for congregational approval. A membership quorum is necessary for this vote, so please plan to attend. Both meetings will be held in the Sanctuary at 12:00 noon.

Autumn Remembrance

We are looking forward to our Intergenerational service on October 26th; there will be no RE classes that morning. We have planned some fun ways to engage our young congregants during the Autumn Remembrance service. They will pass out leaves to everyone before the service and they will sing a song that we’ve practiced. If your child has ever experienced the lost a loved one (human or pet), please begin conversations with him/her about our special service before the 26th. Families are encouraged to bring a photo or item on that day that can be shared during the service to honor a loved one.

  • Our Preschool-5th grade classes are up and running! if you have not already done so, please enroll your children using this link.
  • Youth classes are offered the first and second Sunday of each month (Middle & High School) Please enroll your teens using this link.

While a loving group of elders engages with your little ones, you’re free to do something just for you—get a pedicure, go on a date, take a nap. It’s a gift of time, from our hearts to yours.
