Characters in other bubbles are more entertaining. 2. It keeps America from splitting in two. 3. Realistic math. Horse trading or stalemate. 4. Ponder my values\, I’ll ponder yours. 5. Certainty is sanctuary. Crossing the aisle is lonely. \nDuring the summer our worship is led each week by a member of our congregation. Steve Kropper leverages a Cornell MBA as a start-up entrepreneur in telecom and clean energy. The product of a mixed marriage between one family of Republican Vermonter engineer-entrepreneurs and the other with a union organizing grandfather who won 40\,000 votes for Congress on the Socialist ticket\,. A former AMC hut boy on Mt. Washington\, Steve has hopped freight trains and hitchhiked across the US. He has worked on Democratic presidential campaigns since 1976 and helped to retire the last GOP House member in New England. Steve makes his home in Lincoln and hais two adult daughters who endured his parenting messages that they are ‘confident\, assertive and independent\,” until it’s true! \n\n\n\n scroll right scroll left\n\n\n\nView or download the Order of Service\n\n\nThe Order of Service is generally posted on Thursday or Friday before the service\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick To Join Worship on Zoom\n\n  \nOr use your phone to participate with audio only by dialing 929-205-6099 then enter 859 7713 3204 followed by the pound key. \nIf you have trouble connecting via Zoom\, you may view the sermon on our YouTube channel at a later date. \nBack to Events URL:https://www.firstparish.info/event/worship-service-20240630/ LOCATION:Zoom CATEGORIES:Virtual First Parish END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240630T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240630T093000 DTSTAMP:20260404T083857 CREATED:20230825T142514Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250710T160942Z UID:10000111-1719738000-1719739800@www.firstparish.info SUMMARY:Sunday Zoom Meditation DESCRIPTION:Looking for support for your meditation practice?

Ebonié has been a member of FPUUA for almost 10 years. They have taught RE\, made a bounty of pies for the Pie Palace fundraiser\, and currently serves as a member of the Committee on Ministry. When Ebonié is not coaching and cheering on their beloved soccer team you can find them cooking a hearty meal for their family and friends. \nDuring the summer our worship is led each week by a member of our congregation. Ebonié Smith-Cooper shares her life with her spouse\, their son\, and our Goldendoodle. She has been a member of First Parish for almost 10 years. Ebonié feels called to a life of service and works everyday to move in that direction. In her free time she enjoys coaching in-town sports\, listening to audiobooks\, and playing card games with her family. \n\n\n\n scroll right scroll left\n\n\n\nView or download the Order of Service\n\n\nThe Order of Service is generally posted on Thursday or Friday before the service\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick To Join Worship on Zoom\n\n  \nOr use your phone to participate with audio only by dialing 929-205-6099 then enter 859 7713 3204 followed by the pound key. \nIf you have trouble connecting via Zoom\, you may view the sermon on our YouTube channel at a later date. \nBack to Events URL:https://www.firstparish.info/event/worship-service-20240623/ LOCATION:Zoom CATEGORIES:Virtual First Parish END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240623T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240623T093000 DTSTAMP:20260404T083857 CREATED:20230825T142514Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250710T160942Z UID:10000110-1719133200-1719135000@www.firstparish.info SUMMARY:Sunday Zoom Meditation DESCRIPTION:Looking for support for your meditation practice?
