On Sunday, May 15th, Rev. David Horst explores the inner work of aging in his sermon “The Wisdom of Age.”
As we transition from a life of family, work, and acquisition to our Elderhood, how do the roles we have lived (or been assigned) give way to new wisdom and deeper soulfulness? Rev. Horst also suggests some contemplative practices for self-reflection on the aging process.
Rev Nicholas Boke will be our guest leader on Sunday, May 8, 2022. Rev Nicholas Boke, who has supplied pulpits in dozens of UU churches, is the former minister of the First Universalist Parish of Chester, Vermont. He currently works as an international education consultant, primarily in the Middle East and Africa.
The title of his sermon this week will be "Loss and Wonder".
This Sunday’s sermon is “The Joy of Environmental Gardening”.
We will attempt to simulcast our service via Zoom. For those participating by Zoom, the experience will be different than previously. The hymns and other material will not be on the screen, and those present in the sanctuary will not be able to see or hear you. If you have an Announcement or a Joy or Concern to share, you should communicate it in advance to someone who will be physically present.
The Zoom link is https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82879461348 and the passcode is FallRiver (no space).
