Welcome!
Greetings to you, our fellow travelers!
We are glad you have dropped by, and offer you a sincere welcome. First Unitarian Society is a community about helping people thrive and grow by their own personal path. So since you are here today, or at least virtually here, it seems our paths will move together for a while. As you expore our web site, you may find we have much in common. If so, you will find our real doors wide open.
Perhaps we’ll meet soon. But whether we do or not, we wish you success in your journey. May you find what you seek!
Oh, and if you’re wondering what the picture to the right is about, that’s us, or some of us, at a Parish Meeting, voting. It is just one part of our unique culture.
Upcoming Services at FUS
Saturday, May 17, at 4:30 p.m.
“Flower Communion”
with Kelly Crocker & Michael Schuler
Saturday services end with Flower Communion and will resume August 30 with Water Communion. Join us for this uniquely Unitarian Universalist celebration of unity-in-diversity. Please bring one or more fresh seasonal flowers with you to create the centerpiece of our celebration.

Sunday, May 18 at 9 & 11 a.m.
“One World”
by Michael A. Schuler, Parish Minister
Unitarian Universalism’s Sixth Principle is perhaps the most idealistic and utopian of the seven. It exhorts us to work toward a world community where the blessings of peace, justice and liberty are shared by all – a world liberated from the parochial loyalties that provoke competition and conflict. But how can liberal religion contribute to the creation of a kinder, gentler form of globalism?
Musically,The Cherub Choir will sing Nick Page’s UU Children’s Blessing and the Choristers and Teen Choir will sing Brian Tate’s We Are One with soloist Beth Allred. Beth will also sing solos from her recent UW degree recital.
Sunday, May 25 at 9 & 11 a.m.
“Illuminating Mind, Exploring Memory”
by Kelly J. Crocker, Minister of Religious Education
We live with a delicate dance of remembering and forgetting in all of our lives and there are many mysteries regarding how we are shaped by our memories. Why is it important to remember? Would you want to remember more if you could? What happens when our memories fail us? Join us as we explore how are minds work to craft our memories in order to create the ever-evolving and empowering story of our lives.
Musically, C.S.Clay will play trombone accompanied by Dan Broner on the harpsichord.
Sunday, June 1 at 9 & 11 a.m.
“Flower Communion”
with Karen Gustafson & Michael Schuler
A Sunday version of the service held two weeks earlier on Saturday, today’s flower communion celebration will feature different music and a new message, but attendees are still asked to bring fresh flowers to create the wonderful ambience that always characterizes this service. New Members will be welcomed this weekend.
Musically, The Cherub Choir, Choristers and Teen Choir, directed by Heather Thorpe, will sing the musical offerings.
 Registration is open for Childrens Religious Education Classes in 2008-09
