Sunday, April 21st – “The Joy of Being Just” Led by Kannan Thiruvengadam and the FPB Environmental Justice Committee
The guest speaker for our Earth Day Service is Kannan Thiruvengadam. Kannan leads Eastie Farm, an urban farm in East Boston that fosters food security, regenerative land use, and environmental stewardship. He says: “I lost my own mother as a child. Later in life, I learned climate science and realized the risks to our shared mother earth. I sought relief in action, running a farm that empowers young people to be compassionate climate leaders, and an advocacy group fighting for a beautiful coastal habitat. Every day I ask myself: ‘Am I healthy enough to be kind? Am I grateful enough to be hopeful? What’s my role in the care for creation?’ Together, let us explore these questions, and those in your heart.”
There will be an opportunity for in-person Question & Answer with Kannan following the service from 11:15 to 11:45 am in the Bacon Room.
Sunday, April 28th – “The Light of Reason and the Wonder of it All” Rev. Jamie preaching
As our delegates get ready to vote on the seven proposed core values of UU at General Assembly in June, there is a twist: two new proposed values, courtesy of the amendment process! This Sunday we will talk about the first of these, which is “Reason.” For much of its history, the watchwords of Unitarianism were “Reason, freedom, and tolerance.” Our respect for reason and science is held (by us) to be one of the most distinctive things about our tradition. This Sunday let’s talk about why it’s also one of the most inspiring! (And one that has sometimes led us astray.)
