This Sunday continues the Soul Matters theme of “imagination” with FCU member Rev. Jackie Clement preaching! We plan to use YouTube Live for our service. Happy news – you no longer need to wait for the Sunday morning email for the worship service link! Simply go to http://youtube.com/FirstChurchUnitarianLittleton/live and the live video will come up! Usually the live video stream begins around 9:45, but there won’t be much to see until 9:56 or so when the gathering video starts.

Rev. Jackie’s sermon will be “Awkward: a Tale of Collapsing Corsets and Wayward Whipped Cream”. Description: Awkward stuff happens. It just does. Even to the sauvest, coolest, most graceful of us, awkward stuff happens. And when it does we often react with gut-wrenching sweaty-palmed speechless embarrassment. What possible good can come from those moments when social expectations and our own human frailties meet? Join us on Facebook Live as we consider the effects and opportunities of these spiritually challenging moments. The service will be led by FCU member Rev. Jackie Clement, with help from Monica Pilman.

Due to COVID-19, UU Uke rehearsals in FCU spaces will not be happening from March 15 through the end of the month, when we reevaluate. (The UU Ukuleles usually hold their weekly practice downstairs in the dining room after church. Everyone is welcome to hang out and listen and sing.)

Zoom with us the last Thursday of the next five months from 7:00 -8:30 PM. Rev. Lara Hoke will provide a spiritual frame for the topic each evening. Doug Sweetser will present for a general audience an issue in physics with our current approach and detail its limitations. Doug does unfunded research in the numbers Nature may be using for their magic. Doug’s divergent approach will be encapsulated in a t-shirt for each talk. After presenting enough slides to explain the t-shirt in under a half-hour, the zoom room will be opened up for discussion and open-ended questions.
The first talk is titled: “The three most important equations in all of mathematical physics: 0+0=0, 0*0=0, and 1*1=1 – Always here-now and seen.” (The next topics will be relativity, gravity, quantum mechanics, and visualization.)
A $5 donation for First Church Unitarian can be made here, or send a check with “physics” in the memo line to FCU; 19 Foster St.; Littleton, MA 01460. No donation is necessary for those who are experiencing financial difficulties.
