No service in Stow
This year’s joint summer service of the Harvard, Littleton, and Stow/Acton UU churches will be in Harvard in the church’s Fellowship Building, 7 Elm Street near the Common.
The service is modeled after a Sunday morning, minister-led service and incorporates worship traditions from the three churches. Rev. Michelle Walsh will lead the worship service, entitled: The Platinum Rule— Walking a Mile in Another’s Shoes.
There will be a “pick-up” choir. Ted Johnson, Music Director of Harvard, will direct the choir. Rehearsal begins at 8:30AM and all singers are welcome. The choir will sing a choral introit and anthem.
Children are welcome. However, baby-sitting is not offered, and there are no Religious Education programs during the summer.
Refreshments will be served after the service.
Directions to the Harvard UU Church can be found here.

"Well, if we're all supposed to be created equal, I guess that means girls as well as boys." --Marcia Brady
In this service, we will explore our attitudes about gender, talking about the messages we received about gender growing up, how language impacts our beliefs about gender, and ways that we can challenge gender norms. How does (or should) our UU faith impact our own actions related to gender? We hope this service will be highly conversational. Join us!
This service will be led by Whitney Retallic and Erica Labb.

We all have had fathers; many still do and some have or had more than one. Most of us got to have a relationship with our fathers, though some of us know of them only through others' memories and stories only. Some of us are fathers and yet others are partners with a father.
We'll take this opportunity to reflect on fathers and fatherhood. Perhaps you will recall a pleasant memory with that special person. Maybe you remember the struggles that you and your father have or had. Maybe your father was a partner in your spiritual growth or taught you life lessons that you have incorporated into your world view. Or your father is growing into a new phase of life, has shown you some part of him that was a surprise to you, is being challenged. Or you, as a father, are learning what your father had to deal with!
We would love for people of all ages to participate in this observation of Father's Day. Please share your stories, memorabilia, appreciations, and experiences of fathers.
The service will be led by Lee Cooprider.
