We will gather the waters of peace, love, sorrow, and joy as we gather together as a beloved community to start our church year. Students and teachers of all ages are also invited to bring a backpack or other item to be blessed as they begin their academic year. Rev. Dr. Cynthia L. Landrum will lead the service.
Recordings of Past Services
Video recordings of our Sunday services are available on our YouTube channel. Click on icon below to visit.
We also have a collection of audio recordings of selected Sunday 11:00AM services. To hear a service simply click on the red side of the audio player of the one you would like to hear. Alternatively, you can click on the .mp3 link to download the service to your computer or mobile device.
Note: Due to limitations with FPC's current audio system, the sound quality for most musical segments was very poor. As such, many of these pieces have not been included. We are working on upgrading the system so that the complete services can be heard. Also, for reasons of privacy, the "Joys and Concerns" segments have been excluded.
Should you have difficulty playing these recordings please contact: webadmin@fpc-stow-acton.org

Religion has often played a key role in influencing our relationship to the earth: from having “dominion,” to being caretakers, or even partners. What images do we hold? What responsibilities do we have? This service will explore our competing stories about the earth… and the hopes and fears we share going forward.
The Service will be led by members of the FPC Climate Change Task Force.

Rev. Dr. Cynthia L. Landrum will be preaching.
Mother's Day is a holiday our culture pays a lot more attention to than Father's Day. The same is often true in our churches, with Father's Day falling during our summer service time. So today we'll talk about and honor parents of all genders, as well as those who are not parents but otherwise mentor and nurture children and youth.

ONE SERVICE AT 11AM in the Sanctuary
What does it mean to be "the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to live in"? Could it be that we are building on something for the generations: past and future? Let us come together to explore our common call to build and rebuild the ruined cities. To restore this world we must come away from the notions of scarcity and the limitations of the moment, and see our life experience as part of a larger chain of causation, each person, taking their rightful place and influencing a small but significant part of the ultimate work effort, which is to say, laying the firm foundations for a new world.
Rev. Daniel Gregoire will be our guest preacher this morning at the one 11AM service.

April’s theme is “wholeness” and a good time to reflect on how we support and embrace people with mental illness and support and embrace people through times of struggle in our community. Rev. Dr. Cynthia Landrum will be preaching.

May 5th is the 200th anniversary of the Baltimore Sermon, the sermon that William Ellery Channing gave that defined and transformed Unitarianism. May 5th is a day we’re pretty busy at FPC, but April 7th is also William Ellery Channing’s birthday, which gives us a great opportunity to look at the life and works of this great Unitarian figure. Rev. Dr. Cynthia Landrum will be preaching.
