Centering Prayer Group
Featured RecurringLMH Room A 26 Pleasant St, Newburyport, MA, United StatesWednesdays, May 28 - July 9, LMH Room A, 10-11am. Led by Cynthia Tolbert. For almost 20 years Cynthia Tolbert has practiced Centering Prayer, a silent meditation of consent to the presence and action of the Divine within. In essence, contemplative prayer is simply a wordless, trusting opening of self to the Divine presence, however you name that presence, The Divine, the One Light, God, the Creator. It is not a guided meditation, you do not offer any words in prayer, you just listen and open yourself to the Divine. Centering Prayer will be on hiatus after July 9 until September.

Summer Sunday Worship Service
FeaturedFRS Sanctuary 26 Pleasant St, Newburyport, MA, United StatesSunday, July 13, Sanctuary, 10am with livestream on YouTube. One More Step – Sue Creed The inspiration for Sue's topic, “One More Step,” comes from the writings of the late Maxine Steeves, wife of the late Rev. Bertrand Steeves, FRSUU minister from 1956-1994. Having been a personal witness to the times during which Maxine and Bert lived and ministered, Sue hopes to draw a through line of real activism here at the FRSUU for all of us. Via Maxine's stories, may we hear a call to action and do all that we are able to meet today’s challenges.
