SUMMARY:Social Justice Action Presentation: Leadership Development in the Wake of the Recent Election Results
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is invited for our monthly free lunch at noon after coffee hour in the Alliance Room (RSVP required). UU Rev. Jo Murphy will speak about her work as executive director of the UU Mass Action organization coordinating with all the UU congregations in Massachusetts. She will emphasize leadership development in the wake of the recent election\nresults. \nUU Mass Action was founded by Lynn Holbein\, former Co-Chair of the FUUSN Social Action Council before she moved to North Carolina. Their mission is to organize and mobilize UUs in Massachusetts to confront oppression. They provide pathways towards justice and identify opportunities in which we can live our shared values. They build relationships with congregational leaders and work to develop their leadership and engage them in our statewide campaigns. These are campaigns on climate and economic justice\, immigrant justice\, housing justice\, youth engagement and more. Every year in April they lead all congregational teams to lobby their state representatives and senators about pending legislation that need sponsorships and support. Rev. Jo worked as a chaplain at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston for the past two years\, in addition to being a case manager supporting people living with brain injuries. She is a volunteer organizer with the Boston Immigration Justice Accompaniment Network and with the Boston chapter of Standing Up for Racial Justice. \nPlease RSVP (required).

SUMMARY:Worship Service: Feel\, Deal\, Heal
DESCRIPTION:Devin Shmueli\, Director of Family and Community Ministries\nWhile recovery is not one-size-fits-all\, one thing we can learn from people in recovery – living with behavioral or substance addiction – is that it is necessary for one to lean into complex feelings rather than find unhealthy ways to cope. What does feel\, deal\, heal mean? Healing starts with feeling. \nYou may also join us on Zoom: https://bit.ly/fuusn-worship-2024-2025 \nSubmit your Joys and Sorrows here.

SUMMARY:Worship Service: Wheel of Life
DESCRIPTION:Lay Ministry\nThis Sunday your lay ministers will offer our annual Wheel of Life service. This service is where we recognize our collective transitions of the past year – growing our families through births and adoptions; moving on in our lives through graduations\, new jobs\, retirements\, and geographic relocations; coming into our own truer selves through transgendering; deepening our relationships by joining in marriage; acknowledging the changes in ourselves and relationships through separation and divorce; and remembering those loved ones we have lost through death. Please join us either in person or on Zoom. \n\n\nIf you would like to have one or more life event shared in the order of service at this service\, please complete this form by Oct 20. Answer only the questions relevant to you. If it is not apparent\, please make sure to include how the person is related to you. We may alter or edit the formatting to increase consistency within the order of service. If you prefer to email your events\, you can send them to Ellen Metzger. FILL OUT IN GOOGLE FORMS\nWe want to include poetry that seems meaningful and appropriate\, especially poetry written by members of the congregation. In this context\, we are focusing on inter-generational listening\, what we have heard and learned both from our elders and those younger than us\, whether easy or challenging to hear. If you have poetry you’d be willing to share for this purpose\, please contact Nancy Mattei.

SUMMARY:Social Justice Action Presentation: Short-Term Hosting of Immigrant Families
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is invited for our monthly free lunch after coffee hour in the Alliance Room. UU Rev. Kathleen McTigue will speak about her experiences with short-term hosting of small immigrant families who are desperate for privacy and support. The state’s 7\,500-person cap on sheltering homeless families and immigrants has left 750 people with small children struggling in large\, inhumane spaces and without privacy.
