SUMMARY:Mussar Spiritual Practice Series - Fall 2026
DESCRIPTION:October 9\, October 23\, November 6\, November 20\, December 4\, December 18\n8:00am – 9:00am\, Zoom \nInterested in exploring a spiritual practice based on values we are trying to live out in our lives? Mussar is a 1\,000 year old Jewish spiritual practice\, aimed at creating a better world.  It includes individual practice\, study with a partner and group reflection.  Join Bonnie Zimmer on Zoom every other Friday morning from 8 -9 am October through December.  More than 40 members of our congregation have already taken part in a Mussar program and this program will offer a place for newcomers and experienced folks alike. \nONLY IF YOU ARE NEW TO MUSSAR there will be a mandatory introductory session held on Zoom for 90 minutes on Friday October 2 from 8:00-9:30AM. \nThe regular program then begins October 9 with 60 minute Zoom sessions from 8:00-9:00AM.  Please contact Bonnie if you have a conflict with any of the dates\, as consistent attendance is important for your own learning and for the group. \nIn this program we will explore the soul-traits or “Middot” of Awareness\, Enoughness/Contentment\, Silence\, and Joy!  We will also explore how the addition of a Sabbath (“Shabbat”) practice might deepen and enhance our experience of Mussar. Shabbat experiences will be designed by the group and are totally optional.  \nPlease register in advance here. Registration for this series closes on Wednesday\, September 30.\nPLEASE NOTE – REGISTRATION IS FOR ALL INSTANCES OF THIS GROUP (you cannot register for individual dates).

SUMMARY:Alliance Program - Making Sense of the World: Highlights from Our Family Gap Year
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Hunter shares pictures and stories from six months of travel with her family around the world. Planning and pitfalls\, advice and adventures\, lessons and lived experience are all explored as she lays out the dreams and realities of stepping away from familiar routines and completely outside your comfort zone. ALL ARE WELCOME! \nThe Alliance serves First Parish by supporting women in our congregation as well as advancing the interests and efforts of our entire church. With its own endowment and investments\, the Alliance remains a financially independent group within First Parish. The majority of our annual expenditures go to support a charitable giving plan that focuses on organizations that serve women and families in transition. Alliance meetings\, programs\, and activities provide opportunities for learning\, ongoing fellowship\, and rich discussions. Membership in the Alliance is open to those in our church who identify as female; Alliance programs and activities are inclusive across all gender identities and ages.
