Join FRS member and LICSW Woman Cooper on Wednesdays at 10am for a brief period of mid-week relaxation and renewal. Each 30-minute session will include a guided visualization and reflection on questions around where we hold stress and how we can release it. You’ll also learn some relaxation techniques to use on your own. This is a drop-in program; come one time or many. If you'd like to reach out to Woman, email susanc0805@gmail.com.

Weekly on Wednesdays, Robing Room, 10-11am. Centering Prayer is a form of Christian Contemplative Meditation. The purpose of this meditation is not to clear the mind as much as it is to open oneself to the presence of the Divine and invite the action of the Divine within. No previous experience or training is required. This form of Contemplative prayer is a practice in resting in the presence of God through non-thinking surrender and to form a deeper relationship with the Divine. Centering Prayer will be led by Cynthia Tolbert. All are welcome. Please contact Rev. Jane Tuohy at jane.tuohy@frsuu.org or 617-359-0079 if you have questions.

An opportunity to meet other Parish Friends, ask questions, and brainstorm. If interested in simply learning more about Parish Friends, this would be a great forum. We realize mornings don’t work for everyone.

Thursday, November 20, LMH Main Room, 1-2:30pm. Let’s Talk about Aging – Honestly Exploring Elderhood Together invites you to bring your honest thoughts and questions about aging. There is wisdom, resilience, and fulfillment that come with age, while acknowledging the physical, emotional, and social challenges. Our conversations will be moderated by FRSUU member Nancy Kidd and her former co-worker Marijane Helbick, both licensed social workers. Join us to talk about a positive, realistic view of aging as a meaningful stage of life.
