10am Sunday Summer Service | The Mortgage is Never Paid
We spend our lives trying to reach completion. But do we ever attain it? Is this necessarily a bad thing? Is there a spiritual lesson to be learned from bill paying?
Speaker: Peter House

Drop-In Discussion 11:30am each Sunday in the Chalice Room (second floor).We may be discussing the sermon we just heard, or we may have a presentation and discussion of a specific topic. Drop in and find out! All are welcome!
Upcoming Events & Additional Announcements
NYSCU Annual Meeting | October 25 & 26
The New York State Convention of Universalists is coming to Rochester! The NYSCU annual meeting is right here at First Universalist, October 25 and 26. To help our guests feel welcome, can you suggest your top one or two things for visitors to Rochester to do at the end of October? Ann Rhody and Nancy Gaede are working to plan the event, so if you have suggestions, please email them or the church office. And watch for opportunities to volunteer coming soon!

Project Team Grant
We are pleased to announce that a friend of the church (not a member) has made a very generous challenge grant to support the launch of our church Project Team anti-racism initiative. All gifts made in July and August, up to a total of $2500, will be matched dollar for dollar, so your gift will be doubled! Checks can be made out to First Universalist Church with “church project” on the memo line. Please contact Elizabeth Osta or Theo Munson (Project Team co-chairs) if you have questions! Together we can!
Check our progress here!

Summer Programming for Children
Over the summer children, as always, are welcome in service or in Childcare on the second floor with Ms. Carol and Ms. Sundae; this room now has air conditioning! Children's Worship will restart when the church year begins in September. 

Library open during the summer!
The Church Library and Bookstore will be open on alternate Sundays during the summer schedule - last one on August 25. After that, the library will be open every Sunday again!
