Thursday, May 7, LMH Main Room and Parish Hall 1st Floor, 6:30pm. FRSUU and other faith-based, labor, and social justice groups in the Newburyport area are working with the Merrimack Valley Project to form a coalition to protect the rights of everyone who lives here. The Merrimack Valley Project works to unite groups to work toward social, racial, and economic justice, especially for immigrant and other marginalized communities. We are facing unprecedented threats to our immigrant neighbors and friends. How can we work together to ensure that our community is safe for them? Join us for a workshop on how to strengthen communities through organizing, and to start the conversation on what we can do to protect our neighbors and prepare for the challenges of the future. Sign up to join us here!

Change of day as of April 6, 2026: meeting weekly on Mondays, 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.
2nd and 4th Mondays, LMH Room A, 11am-12:30pm. This group is for those who have a diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment of some type of dementia. The group offers members an opportunity to share with others who are facing this-life limiting diagnosis. Members are able to be vulnerable and open about the many challenges they face, as well as their adaptive coping mechanisms. This is facilitated by Nancy Kidd, LICSW; Rev. Jane Tuohy; and Linda Harding. For more information, contact Nancy Kidd at nankdd@gmail.com or 978-376-8687.
