Upcoming Services
Sunday, May 20th
This will be an exciting service! Our Junior and Senior Youth selected the theme and they have been working with DRE, Michelle Cote and Music Director, Mike Pfitzer to create a meaningful service for all ages. We are very proud of our Youth at FPC. I hope you will be there to support them and hear their message. We will also recognize our graduating seniors at this service.
Sunday, May 27th
Unitarian Universalists are often accused of being too much in our heads or too intellectual in our approach to religion. What can we learn from mystics of the past and present about the heart of religion and the art of surrender?
Our service will be led by Allison Palm who just finished her second year in the Masters of Divinity program at Andover Newton Theological School. She is a lifelong Unitarian Universalist from central Minnesota and hopes to go into Parish Ministry once she completes her degree.
Sunday, June 3rd
We bring our regular season of Sunday Morning Worship in our sanctuary to a close with our beautiful flower communion ritual. Please be sure to bring a cut flower or two. We will bring them all together in one bouquet symbolizing the unity in our diversity. In doing so, we will recognize the many blessings, gifts and talents we each bring to this community. In gratitude for all we receive from others in our church community we will leave with the flower that another person brought. Two members of our Youth Group will perform a short skit entitled “A Dialogue about Flowers and Men” written many years ago for this special Sunday by our late Minister Emeritus, The Rev. Don Kafka. Our Adult and Youth choirs, under the direction of Mike Pfitzer, and our children’s choir, under the director of Pat Sorn, will be providing beautiful music.
This is a very meaningful service that really communicates what is at the heart of our faith tradition. If you are interested in learning more about Unitarian Universalism, this would be a great service to attend.
Sunday, June 10th
Yes, on this one Sunday you can bring your coffee to worship! In fact, as we gather, the Minister and the Committee on Ministry will be serving coffee, juice and donuts in front of the church. Then we will be called to gather on the side lawn of the church by our FPC Drummers! Our own piper, Ethan Mattor will lead our children in procession to our place of worship.
This will be a fun, informal service of stories and singing and sharing. DRESS CASUALLY and BRING A CHAIR OR BLANKET TO SIT ON! Some chairs will be provided for senior members.
Don’t forget our annual picnic will immediately follow the service.If the weather isn’t kind, we will have the service and the picnic in Fellowship Hall.
