10am Sunday Service: Bucket List

As I get closer to retiring, several people have asked me what my “bucket list” is. I will confess, I don’t have one. I’m also not sure I want one. Does life even work that way?


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.

Additional Announcements

Tuesday, July 18 | Drop-In Discussion: Fire! It’s Complicated

Join us as we discuss the complex relationship we humans have with fire—a relationship 200,000 years in the making. What impact did fire have on the development of our species? What impact does it have on our planet today? And what about the future? Can humans, and/or the many other lifeforms we share this planet with, survive this combustible relationship? Keven Adams presents. 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!


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!
