First Church and Parish - Dedham
A UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST CONGREGATION - Gathered In 1638
Worship at 10 am Sundays

Sunday, April 27, 2025 at 10 am
Be Not Afraid
Rev. Fred Small will preach
In the problematic decades, we will need courage, fortitude, and love. But we will also need equanimity: the ability to see things as they are, without attachment or aversion. We are most effective when we are calm and at ease, able to respond freshly and strategically to our challenges. How can we cultivate equanimity in challenging times?
The James Joyce Ramble will be running through Dedham starting at 11 am. It will be difficult to leave Dedham during the race.
We invite you to stay for a pot-luck lunch in the Parish House after service. Sandwiches will be provided. Please bring a side, a salad or a dessert to share.

Unitarian Universalist congregations affirm and promote seven Principles, which we hold as strong values and moral guides. We live out these Principles within a “living tradition” of wisdom and spirituality, drawn from sources as diverse as science, poetry, scripture, and personal experience.
