Annual Meeting is a time to come together and make decisions about the life of First Parish. In addition to electing officers and leaders, members vote on a budget in line with our values. We celebrate the many gifts we share and thank our talented, dedicated volunteers who foster a beloved community.
One special agenda item has been added and approved unanimously by the Parish Committee: conferring emerita minister status on Rev. Marta Flanagan. Listening sessions on this warrant article will be held in May in conjunction with the budget listening sessions: Wednesday, May 7 at 7:30 pm – 8:30 pm via Zoom; Sunday, May 11th at 11:30 in person; Monday, May 12 at 7:30 pm via Zoom.
