Celebrating Samhain

On October 29th,  we will celebrate Samhain during our Sunday worship.  Ancient Celts celebrated Samhain to give thanks for the final harvest and honor ancestors who came before us. As part of this service, we will remember and honor people who have died. You are invited to put a photo or other remembrance on the altar to remember people in your life who have passed away.  This year, we  will begin by honoring members of First Parish who passed away since the winter of 2020: Richard Gonci, Barbara Ceconi, Thomas Mikelson, Frank Duehay, Sheila Rice, Dan Bartley, Lisa Bailey, John Moss, Joel Baehr and Lesley Phillips.
