Upcoming Services
February 2023
February 5 | The Borders and the Beast
Borders are often created around a sense of identity for a place or a location. But what happens when borders take on a mind of their own, when they seek to exclude rather than identify or even welcome in? The walls that are created have so much to say about the people who reside on either side.
— Rev. Lane-Mairead Campbell
February 12 | The Distance From Which I Can Love You and Love Myself at the Same Time
Prentis Hemphill writes, “Boundaries are the distance at which I can love you and me simultaneously.” On this Sunday before Valentine's Day, let's explore what it looks like to set loving boundaries for others and for ourselves.
— Rev. Lane-Mairead Campbell
February 19 | Preparing to Let Boundaries Go
As Christians in our community look ahead to Ash Wednesday, there is ever the reminder, "From dust you came and to dust you shall return." The dissolving of boundaries is a core aspect of living a spiritually grounded life. And when we are reminded of the thinness of the veil between death and life, let's explore the boundaries that have to be released.
— Rev. Lane-Mairead Campbell
February 26 | "Time, Death, and the Space Between the Stars" - Medical Aid in Dying in New York
Aging definitely helps to clarify the mind. I’ve often preached on how we live; this sermon considers how we die. I’ll discuss medical aid in dying legislation in New York in the broader context of the meaning of life and death. “The wonder is that it has happened at all.”
— Rev. Dick Gilbert
*First Universalist has a long-standing tradition of having one Sunday sermon a month be presented by someone other than our minister. Our lay-led services give our minister well-deserved unscheduled time, as well as allowing us to share our individual spiritual journeys, experiences and diverse world views, which is an important part of our rich Unitarian Universalist heritage.
Our Monthly Worship Themes
Each month we explore a specific theme in our Sunday Worship services, Midweek Meditations, and occasional Drop-In Discussions.
