A message from the minister

Jay Elliott photo

Dear Friends,
If great congregations make great ministers, First Parish Church is an OUTSTANDING Congregation! This spring we ordained two new UU ministers in our church. Carie Johnsen, who has been our student minister for the past two years, became a full-fledged minister in June and has been called to a church in Augusta, Maine. Tim Temerson, our own parishioner, who did his ministerial internship in Lexington, Mass., was ordained in May and has been called by a church in Akron, Ohio. 
These are just the latest in a line of great ministers we have nurtured in recent decades at FPC. It has been a delight for me to have witnessed the blossoming of these two new ministers!
Earlier this spring, I spent April school vacation week in New Orleans with 14 other FPCers — including two terrific young men from our high school HIP group — working to help residents there rebuild and repair their homes. More than three and a half years after Hurricane Katrina struck, New Orleans is far from whole, and many people displaced by the disaster are still trying to return to their homes. To find out more, listen to the "New Orleans" programs on the "FPC on the Air" page, and view our photo gallery.

Catherine
