Inclusivity Workshop
September 22, 2019 11:45 am - 2:45 pm
A Workshop for All -
And Especially Those Who Teach or Mentor Children and Youth: Pre-emptive Radical Inclusion
At First Parish we continue to support the religious growth and learning of our teachers and mentors. We are delighted that CB Beal, M.Div., will join us on Sunday, Sept. 22 to lead worship and to facilitate a workshop that will explore how we live covenant and connection as a community in a way that increases inclusion, equity, and justice. Preemptive Radical Inclusion is about engaging “all of us together” for the purpose of living our principles in a new way. We will examine our commitments, our openness to intentionally create a community of welcome, and our willingness to put down past assumptions, beliefs and behaviors in order to move collectively in a way that helps bend the moral arc of the universe toward justice.
The workshop will begin at 11:45 AM with a light lunch and will conclude at 3::00; child care will be offered and we hope that all teachers, mentors, advisors, teen teachers AND all of the congregation will join us. Watch for more information about signing up!

"Dying Well" discussion
September 29, 2019 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
"Dying Well" - Looking for Your Feedback…and FPB Death Doula
A few years ago, a small group of parishioners formed an End of Life Committee to offer education, resources and opportunities for open conversation on matters of death and dying. These conversations and programs will continue and expand this church year with a renamed Dying Well Committee. We want to hear from you about what information you might need or want, and what end of life issues you want to explore more fully.
On a personal note…I want to expand and deepen my work with these issues. I believe that faith communities have a vital role to play in this process. This summer I completed training to be a death doula. A death doula, or end of life doula, assists in the dying process, much like a birth doula does with the birthing process. Death doulas help care for someone holistically (physically, emotionally, spiritually) in the last stages of life. Doulas offer guidance, compassionate support and companionship to the dying person and their family and loved ones before, during, and after death. Doulas can help create rituals and vigil plans and sit with a dying person to bear peaceful witness. Doulas often work for hospitals or hospices or have private practices. I am imagining another model. I would like to offer doula assistance to those in our congregation should they desire help in reimagining what death might look like for themselves, and in actively planning for their death when the time comes. The work we could do together could take many forms.
To share your thoughts or needs on future Dying Well programming AND to hear more about or ask questions about what a FPB death doula role might look like, please join me after Sunday service on September 29 at 12:00 PM in Room 204. Light lunch snacks will be available.

p.s. from John Gibbons: Congratulations to Maureen on her new status as a death doula. I’ve shared this news with the Board and together we are enthusiastic to promote her work and that of the Dying Well Committee. Much as we are proud to offer the OWL program of comprehensive sexuality education, a program of Dying Well is not a one-shot program but rather a continuing and integral part of a wholistic approach to life. Deepening our awareness of all aspects of living is what this church is all about.

FP BP Clinic
October 6, 2019 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
As part of the Parish Wellness program, on the first Sunday of each month (Oct. - June) you will find another Blood Pressure Clinic after the Sunday service – 11:00-11:50. Look for First Parish Nurses to be set up.
It’s a good idea to make a list of all the medications you take, over-the-counter (like vitamins and/or low-dose aspirin) as well as prescriptions--and bring it with you. Any questions? Our parish nurses will be glad to answer them. The visit only takes a few minutes, and the people are friendly--so you’ll get a relaxed BP reading. We also have those magnetic “pockets” for you to put on your refrigerator in case of emergency--with a form to fill in with medications and allergies and such, as well as other flyers of interest. If you’ve had your BP checked here before, bring your card with you so it can be updated with Sunday’s reading.
Trans Inclusion Course
October 6, 2019 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

We are excited to be kicking off our series of conversations and learning experiences on “Trans Inclusion in Congregations” from the Transforming Hearts Collective at First Parish in Bedford on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 6 after worship.
Why do we think you might be interested? Because welcoming folks - those we know and those we don't - is about ALL of us...and as the Transforming Hearts Collective says, “This course is for everyone from novices on trans identity to those with decades of life experience" Who should participate? We welcome youth in 9th grade and up and adults of all ages to attend. A light lunch will be offered and childcare is available upon request (so let us know!).
To register for the course please use this online registration form. If online forms are not possible for you, email or call Annie at agonzalez@uubedford.org or 309-310-2341. You can also reach out to Annie or to me with questions, concerns or to schedule a time to talk about the course in advance.
We hope that we'll see you on Sunday - both at worship and afterward - as we begin our conversation on how we provide a radically inclusive welcome to all folks!

FP BP Clinic
April 5, 2020 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
As part of the Parish Wellness program, on the first Sunday of each month (Oct. - June) you will find another Blood Pressure Clinic after the Sunday service – 11:00-11:50. Look for First Parish Nurses to be set up.
It’s a good idea to make a list of all the medications you take, over-the-counter (like vitamins and/or low-dose aspirin) as well as prescriptions--and bring it with you. Any questions? Our parish nurses will be glad to answer them. The visit only takes a few minutes, and the people are friendly--so you’ll get a relaxed BP reading. We also have those magnetic “pockets” for you to put on your refrigerator in case of emergency--with a form to fill in with medications and allergies and such, as well as other flyers of interest. If you’ve had your BP checked here before, bring your card with you so it can be updated with Sunday’s reading.
