We have been holding our Drop-In Discussions online, but we will also be having an in-person Drop-In Discussion on the first Sunday of each month! We take a break from our in-person drop-in-discussions over the summer, but we resume them each September. We hope to see you virtually or in-person!
Our Drop-In Discussions are held virtually on Tuesday evenings, and in-person on the first Sunday of each month at 9:15am in the Chalice room.
Upcoming Services
​
April 2024
​
April 7 | Hope is a Discipline
Prison abolitionist organizer Mariame Kaba is well-known for the mantra "hope is a discipline." What are our Unitarian Universalist disciplines of hope? Gather to reflect and practice them in a time when hope is sorely needed.
— Rev. Sadie Lansdale
​
April 14 |Love Calls Us On
Love calls us towards justice, equity, interdependence, transformation, and yes—towards generosity. Come celebrate the generosity and abundance of this community as First Universalist wraps up its stewardship campaign.
— Rev. Lane-Mairead Campbell
​
April 21 | Loving Those Who Hate
With hatred made visible in policy and practice spreading across our country, we wrestle with how to respond. A time to sit with the question: How do we love those who hate? And what does love call us to do in the face of hatred?
— Rev. Lane-Mairead Campbell
​
April 28 | The Welcome Table
In a season of Passover for Jewish congregants and friends, this is a time to come around the table to share ritual and story. Where do we make space for a new story to be told each time the table grows? Both an invitation and a challenge towards welcoming all.
— Rev. Lane-Mairead Campbell
​
May 2024
​
May 5 | TBA

— Rev. Shari Halliday-Quan
​
May 12 |Joy At The End Of The World
As the earth burns and prisons fill, oppression rages louder and louder, and every year is hotter than the last, what's the point of joy? Is it possible? Is it permissible? Yes, friends. Let us practice joy, especially in the hardest of times.
— Rev. Eileen Casey-Campbell
​
May 19 | Big, Big Joy
To live into unabashed joy, we are not meant to be small. Joy calls us to bigness. How do we balance this call with humility? And how does joy call us to claim our space in the world?
— Rev. Lane-Mairead Campbell

May 26 | TBA

*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
We explore a variety of specific themes in our Sunday Worship services, and occasional Drop-In Discussions.
