chaliceThe First Parish Unitarian Church of Norwell is a liberal church in dialogue with the religious questions of the modern world, yet still honoring the best within our Judeo-Christian heritage. Recognizing no distinction of class, sex, nationality, race, age, or sexual orientation, ours is a Welcoming Church that stresses the need for community amidst the impersonality of the secular world. First Parish, Norwell, is a member church in the Unitarian Universalist Association.

Sunday Service 10am

May 13 - The Next Right Thing

In times of overwhelming stress and chaos when I vented to my mother, she would often say, "Okay, so what do you have to do today?" Her advice always calmed me, as I realized that all we can ever do is the next right thing. What was the best advice your mother gave you?

May 20 - Flower Communion - Alone and Together

Rev. Paul Langston-Daly and Rev. Weinstein

One of the tensions of life is that between the individual and the community; being alone and being together. As Unitarian Universalists, we tend to place more emphasis on the individual. In our culture people are yearning to connect, yearning to participate in community and to make a difference in the world. How do we build intentional community, with justice, equity and compassion at its center? How do we find balance? Please bring a cut flower to share for our Flower Communion.

Rev. Paul Langston-Daley was ordained in 1997 at First Parish Church in Waltham. He has served UU congregations for the past 15 years and is currently serving the Sedona and Prescott UU Fellowships in Arizona.

May 27 - Purple Heart and Bronze Star

On Memorial Day, we gather to remember, to grieve, and to reflect on the battles of life. When I was sitting shiva at my Uncle Dick's condo the other day, I found Purple Heart and Bronze Star medals in one of his desk drawers. I knew he had fought at the Battle of the Bulge, but I did not know the extent of his courage and heroism. What badges of honor and wounds from battles are we keeping in our desk drawers?

June 3 - Music Sunday

Our choir and Music Director bring us a beautiful ministry of music every Sunday. Today they share their gifts again in this annual tradition, and we appreciate the ways that music speaks to our hearts and souls.
