Welcome
Sunday worship services are on summer hiatus and will begin again on September 7th.
Announcements:
- We Send Our Prayers
- Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to Knoxville Unitarian Universalist Church in Knoxville Tennessee as they and their local community come to grips with the shooting tragedy that occurred at the church. We know that the web of life and love is strong and resilient and that our caring matters to those near and far. There is a relief fund set up for those affected at the church to help bring in ministry, spiritual care and financial support. If anyone would like to contribute you can send checks written out to "Knoxville Relief Fund" c/o Tom Klein at:
Unitarian Universalist Association
Stewardship and Development, 6th Floor
25 Beacon Street
Boston, MA 02108 - Country Breakfasts
- The next breakfast will be August 30th. The Country Breakfast runs from 8:00am to 10:00am in the Webster Room. Cost is $6 per person, all are welcome to attend.
- Lasagna Supper
- First Parish will host a lasagna supper on Saturday, August 23rd at 6:00 pm. Menu will be meat and vegetable lasagna, salads, garlic bread, and brownies with ice cream for dessert. All are welcome to attend.
- Summer Services in Winchester, NH
- If you would like to attend worship services this summer, the new Universalist Heritage Foundation (www.univeralistheritage.org ) is having summer services at the Universalist Memorial Church in Winchester NH - only about 10 minutes drive from Northfield. This church is the site of the adoption of the 1803 Winchester Profession of Faith (Universalist) and is now a museum of sorts dedicated to educating Unitarian Universalists and the general public about the history and theology of Universalism. These services will affirm Universalism as a vibrant theological voice for 21st century Unitarian Universalism. All services are held at 10:30 am.
- Food Collection
- Remember to bring canned or dry goods (each Sunday starting again in September) for the hungry in our own Franklin County. The youth will collect these foods as part of our Sunday Offerings and will be taking these contributions to a local food pantry.

They will gather again with the adults during the coffee hour social.
