Church School classes end this week
May 18
is Religious Education Sunday (known for decades at FPC as "Balloon Sunday"). On
that day, children will worship with their families in the sanctuary. Church
School achievements for the year will be celebrated, and we will release
colorful balloons (in an environmentally sensitive way). After the service, the
annual church school photo will be taken and the all-church picnic will be
enjoyed.
For the
remaining Sundays of the church year (through June 22), childcare and activities
will be offered during the Sunday morning worship time.
Parents, if you have not yet registered your children for next fall's classes,
now is the time to do so. A prospectus of courses and registrations forms are
available at the church offices. Contact Religious Education Director Sunsue
Fleming (781-943-6532 ext. 4, or
sunsue@verizon.net.)

"Dancing Our Living Tradition" DVD
is now available
Last year, FPC Religious Education Director Sunsue
Fleming spent part of her sabbatical creating an instructional video of
intergenerational dances suitable for UU worship and ritual. The video
is now available as a DVD, with a companion CD of hymns from our
"Singing the Living Tradition" hymnal. The easy-to-follow video features
eight dances, set to hymns such as "Come, Come, Whoever You Are,"
"Morning Has Broken" and "I've Got Peace Like a River." No dance
training is required to teach or learn the dances. The cost of the DVD
and CD is $22, plus $3 for shipping. To order, contact Sunsue by phone
during office hours at 781-934-6532 or email her at
sunsue@verizon.net.
The video is proving popular with UU ministers and
R.E. directors. Sunsue has just returned from England, where she led a
workshop based on it at the Elizabeth Tarbox International Religious
Education Conference in England this spring. Sunsue's project was
supported financially by the Unitarian Sunday School Society and First
Parish Church.
