  <title>Youth Worship Service - An Exploration of Nature, by the First Parish Youth Group, worship service Sunday, March 22, 2026</title>
  <description>Led by the First Parish Youth Group Worship service given March 22, 2026 https://firstparish.info/ First Parish A liberal religious community, welcoming to all First gathered 1739 Come join the Youth Group for our annual Youth Worship Service! This year, we are slowing down and turning toward the natural world. Through song, story, and reflection, we’ll explore the wonder that grounds us and the question of how we give back to a world that gives us so much. The youth craft and lead every element of the service, and reflections are given by graduating seniors. Come join us for this celebration of our interconnected world. Offering and Giving First The Giving First program donates 50% of the non-pledge offering each month to a charitable organization that we feel is consistent with Unitarian Universalist principles. The program began in November 2009, and First Parish has donated over $200,000 to more than 70 organizations. For March 2026, Boston Women’s Fund will share half the offering collected during Sunday worship at First Parish. Boston Women’s Fund uplifts, advocates for, and invests in women, girls, and gender-expansive people who are leading grassroots organizations and systems-change efforts across Greater Boston. BWF provides flexible funding, leadership and youth development, and educational programming that strengthen movements led by those most impacted by injustice. We prioritize BIPOC-led and BIPOC-serving grassroots organizations with annual budgets under $500,000, helping build power, opportunity, and lasting community impact. The remaining half of your offering supports the life and work of this Parish. To donate using your smartphone, you may text “fpuu” to 73256. Then follow the directions in the texts you receive. </description>
