September 6 | Change the Words...Change the Outcome
The power that our words have to change things going forward—Tom Williams, Kitty Forbush, and Patti Goodwin will be exploring this topic for their annual Labor Day service.
— Kitty Forbush, Tom Williams, & Patti Goodwin

September 13 | Into the Well: Water Communion
“This is no time,” as Rev. Susan Frederick Gray put it, “for a casual faith.” The world (and our church) is changing, but we have a deep well of faith to return and return to in times of upheaval. Come to the well this Sunday as we celebrate our annual Water
Communion, and please bring some water from a source that’s special to you—a river or lake, your home, a pet’s water dish even.
— Rev. Eileen Casey-Campbell

September 20 | Atonement Economics
Our culture carries the story of wrongdoing as debt and punishment as payment, but how has this story of the economics of harm harmed us? And how can we move into new ways of healing?
— Rev. Eileen Casey-Campbell

September 27 | Not an Empty Box − New Member Ceremony!
Ours is a faith of substance and power, but why do we so often talk about it like it’s an empty vessel, into which anything can be poured?
— Rev. Eileen Casey-Campbell

*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.
