SUMMARY:Blessing of the Animals - Multigenerational Service (No Religious Exploration)
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to bring your favorite furry\, hairy\, feathered\, scaly\, or shelled pet to the Sunday morning service at FUUSN. We will celebrate our kinship with all living creatures in the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi and share one of his iconic stories of compassion. This will be a service for all generations\, and we encourage you to invite pet-loving friends to join us! \nYou can bring your beloved creatures along or bring a photo of them; we will also offer a memorial for pets who are no longer with us (who can also be represented with a photo). \nDeciding whether to bring your pet or bring a photo? If you can say yes to these things\, please bring ‘em: \n\nI can keep my pet in my physical control (via leash\, carrier\, box etc.) indoors for 45 minutes\nMy pet won’t be overly stressed by the presence of other animals or humans\n\nIf you are someone who is allergic to animals but would like to be present for the service\, we recommend that you wear a mask and sit in the pews near the rear of the sanctuary to limit your exposure.

SUMMARY:One In Name\, in Honor One: FUUSN's 175th Anniversary
DESCRIPTION:On October 24\, 1868\, a group of leaders in education\, agriculture and politics officially founded a new Unitarian congregation in West Newton. Among them were luminaries we still celebrate: Horace Mann\, Nathaniel Allen\, as well as lesser-known folks whose decisions and foresight have made possible what this congregation is today. We’ll join in story\, song and imagining some key points in our history this morning as we kick off our 175th anniversary celebration!
