10am Sunday Service: Making Peace With Who we Are 

When we are young, we develop goals, and make plans based on who we think we are, and who we believe we will become. Life has other plans for us though, and few of us end up becoming everything we hoped we’d be. Can we discard who we thought we were, and make peace with who we actually are?


Speaker: Peter House



Masking in the First Universalist church building is now optional, please respect any distancing requests by fellow attendees. A mask-required section of the sanctuary is designated for those preferring to stay masked.


Don't forget, 10am services

Tuesday, June 20 | Drop-In Discussion: Julian Assange, Martyr to Truth?

Julian Assange has been in solitary confinement for nearly four years and faces life imprisonment for the crime of revealing secret info about atrocities by U.S. troops in Iraq. Is this just? Phil Ebersole facilitates. Drop-in Discussions meet via Zoom on Tuesday nights from 6:30-7:30pm. Look on the First Universalist homepage for details and a link, or click the Zoom meeting link in this blurb title!


Pride Parade Sign-up!

The Rochester Pride Parade is July 15. Sign-up at pride@uuroc.org or in the Clara Barton Lounge on Sundays after services (look for the PRIDE flag table!). Details for times and parking for marchers and lawn chair cheering section will be sent to folks who sign up.


Summer MOCHA Update!

Although MOCHA takes a break during the summer months, we still would like to offer the opportunity for refreshments and conversation after services. Here’s the plan: We will have cold beverages and some small treats available to be put out. There will NOT be coffee. If you sign up, before the service, you will need make up a pitcher of ice tea or lemonade and put it and a pitcher of water in the fridge. There would be a treat of some sort to put out, along with napkins. After refreshments, you will need to clean up. There is a signup sheet for each summer Sunday on the refreshment table. If you would be willing, please sign up to help!
