Rev Nicholas Boke will be our guest leader on Sunday, May 8, 2022. Rev Nicholas Boke, who has supplied pulpits in dozens of UU churches, is the former minister of the First Universalist Parish of Chester, Vermont. He currently works as an international education consultant, primarily in the Middle East and Africa.
The title of his sermon this week will be "Loss and Wonder".
It was the title of Laura Ogden’s book that caught my attention. “Loss and Wonder,” I said to myself. Isn’t that what religion’s all about? Let’s see.” And so I thought and read and began to write, and, indeed, religion seems to be about just that: Loss and Wonder.
We will attempt to simulcast our service via Zoom. For those participating by Zoom, the experience will be different than previously. The hymns and other material will not be on the screen, and those present in the sanctuary will not be able to see or hear you. If you have an Announcement or a Joy or Concern to share, you should communicate it in advance to someone who will be physically present.
The Zoom link is https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82879461348 and the passcode is FallRiver (no space).
To join by phone, call 1 646 876 9923. The meeting ID is 828 7946 1348 and the passcode is 556537114

We welcome all visitors, friends old and new, to the Unitarian Church in Fall River. We do not have a doctrine to which all adhere, nor is it finite. We can and should be learning, changing, and exploring. Life teaches, or presents us, with opportunities and challenges to which we must respond. We need to develop inner strength or personal philosophies to help us live these moments to the fullest of our capabilities. Through a sense of spirit or a spiritual life, we can expand and enhance our time of being. One way to do this is to learn from the wisdom of those who have gone before us – the resources of the ages. Another way is to share our experiences and revelations with our fellow seekers
