Announcements

Christmas Eve Service
Please join us for our Christmas Eve service on December 24th at 7pm. Pre-service music will begin at 6:30 and will include traditional religious and secular music sung by the adult Vocal Ensemble, as well as vocal, violin, piano solos and duets. All are welcome to attend this service of Christmas music and readings that celebrate the season.


Country Breakfasts
Our country breakfasts take place on the first Saturday of the month, from 8:00am to 10:00am in the Webster Room. Cost is $7 per person, all are welcome to attend. Breakfasts are not held for the month of December. The next breakfast is scheduled for January 7th.


January Round Robin Services
Our congregation has been invited to participate in a Round Robin service series in January. The Unitarian Congregational Church in Bernardston and our First Parish will be hosting each congregation as a way to get to know each other and to share messages from our collective Unitarian Universalist faith traditions. The service in Bernardston on January 8th starts with a coffee hour at 11! We will host the January 15th worship service at 10AM, offer our usual delicious coffee hour, integrate the visiting children into our Religious Education program and just get to know other local Unitarian Universalists. This is a good way to see ourselves not just as one church, but as part of our association of churches. Please plan on coming to both services (weather permitting of course!) What a fun way to start off the year 2012!

Upcoming Services

All services begin at 10 a.m. and are followed by a coffee hour social downstairs in the Webster Room. Children are invited to enroll in our new Religious Education (RE) program which is held during Sunday services. Children will be part of the service for the opening rituals and then be "sung out" by the congregation to their own "children's chapel." They will gather again with the adults during the coffee hour social.
