Sunday, October 1st – “Let Freedom Read” – The American Library Association is clear. The freedom to read is under attack. As we mark what the ALA calls ‘Banned Book Week,’ we explore how it’s not just books being attacked, it’s also our spiritual foundation. – Rev. María Uitti McCabe in the pulpit

Sunday, October 8th – Manjiro Service – Laurie Despres will be in the pulpit as we celebrate the Sunday after Fairhaven’s Manjiro festival with many guests from Japan. More info soon!

Sunday, October 15th – “Who Do We Come From?” – Why does the history of our Unitarian Universalist faith tradition matter to us today? How did we come together to affirm a progressive and even transgressive faith? Join us for a lively journey into the past. – Rev. María McCabe in the pulpit.

Sunday, October 22d – “AI and the Human” – Recent studies show that so-called Robo-preachers and Artificial Intelligence- generated sermons result in lower donations from congregations. Is this the only reason we should be worried? – Rev. María McCabe in the pulpit.

Sunday, October 29th – “Honoring Our Beloved Dead” – In this service we will honor those who have passed from this life. Together we will build an altar to their memory and their impact on our lives. – Rev. María Uitti McCabe in the pulpit.

It’s hard to blame anyone who seeks peace and comfort in today’s turbulent world. But is it possible that our search for spiritual comfort prevents us from hearing Spirit when it needs to get our attention? – Rev. María McCabe in the pulpit.

The magazine Better Homes & Gardens offers a nifty list of tricks to make one’s home feel welcoming to others. Do they work in the case of a spiritual home? In this service we will explore the evolving meanings of ‘welcome the stranger.’ – Rev. María McCabe in the pulpit.
