Rev. Beau Rivers preaching With the approach of the winter holidays, we begin to contemplate how we might honor and celebrate the ones we hold dear. Media outlets inundate us with wonderful gift ideas to tempt our wallets with the promise of happiness. The seduction of consumerism is so great, it often leads to the depletion of our financial resources. This service will explore the essence of gift giving and the possible meaning of true happiness.

Our Annual Holiday Party for RE:  We will be celebrating the holidays on Sunday, December 8.  The children will be together from 12:00 to 2:00 p.m. for gingerbread making, holiday crafting, food and fun.  There is also an opportunity for them to then join the choir for some afternoon holiday caroling.  All are welcome to join the children after church for holiday crafting and gingerbread house making.  We will even share some of our treats!

Members of this team are trained to offer lay pastoral counseling. They may also provide meals; visits; phone calls; cards; transportation to medical appointments, the grocery store, church, or social outings; help with yard work; music; or respite/break time for caregivers. Contact: Susan Curtiss

Our RE Committee meets on the second Wednesday of the month at 6:00 p.m.  We meet at the church, and new members are welcome.  You do not need a child participating in the RE program to join, just ideas and a love of our youth.  Please consider volunteering to teach downstairs for a section of our program. We also need volunteers to help with plays and skits during the year as well as readers for our Message for All Ages during the service. Please contact dre@uumiddleboro.org if you are interested.

We welcome you to join us for a quiet, contemplative candlelit evening service designed to help us all cope with stress at the holidays. The service will be presented by Bet Giddings, Natalie Johnson, Patty and Barry Simon, Valerie Fontaine, Jeff Giddings, Frank Girard, and Tony Soares. The theme is Peace. This service will not be live streamed.

We hope you will join us for this fun night of music, sponsored by the Church and open to the public!  We start at 6:00 p.m. with a potluck of hearty snacks in the Parish Hall, so bring along a favorite treat to share.  A circle of chairs will be set up along with a portable keyboard, and we will provide some percussion instruments.

See Patty Simon.

We continue scheduling weekly ½ hour vigils on Saturday mornings from 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 noon on the church lawn.  All are invited to join in.  Contact Dody Adkins-Perry with any questions.
