July 25 “Learning from a Class Perspective” 


Join us for a panel discussion involving Laurie Proulx, Peter Cordone, Sue Stewart, and Meg Costello. We are all from blue collar families with various outlooks on how this background has carried us through life.

This service will be outside FPC & Zoom weather permitting

 "Flower Communion" - Rev. Dr. Cynthia L. Landrum
This service will be both outside, weather permitting, and on Zoom.

Bring a flower -- or a few -- to share, and take a flower in exchange as we honor the UU ritual of "Flower Communion."  If the weather permits, join us on the FPC lawn or in your car, bringing your flower, your lawn chair or a blanket to sit on, and a radio to listen to the service at our station at 107.7.  Some radios will be available to borrow.  If the weather is rainy, the service will be on Zoom, which is available either way as an option, and still can be heard through our radio system.  Watch your FPC Announce for how the Flower Communion itself might work in times of rain, which is probably a drive-through option following the service at a designated time.  This service will also feature a time to say goodbye to our Music Director, Mike Pfitzer, and honor his ten years of service to FPC.
