First Parish encourages its members to live their faith through specific words and deeds. Public witness – i.e., public statements about our moral principles and their practical applications – can be an important part of living our faith.
We are aware, however, that our members may have different moral and political beliefs and priorities. We are also aware that statements made on behalf of First Parish may affect both our members’ sense of belonging and First Parish’s reputation in the larger community. We therefore expect members of the First Parish community to observe the policies and procedures regarding public witness listed here.
