[post_content] => UPB is committed to making our church welcoming to ALL. As a first step, we have invited qualified firms to complete an accessibility audit. After the audit, the congregation will be invited to provide input on which projects we should move on first. Want to learn more? Read the Accessibility RFP here. This is great progress! But we need some volunteers to review the bids and select a firm. Can you join us for a few meetings, every other Tuesday beginning November 10 at 7pm on Zoom? Come and help make the UPB dream of accessibility a reality! Questions? Contact Deb H. or Patty.

[post_content] => This year, we are offering two types of programs for families with young children in our congregation. Once a month, Pastor Amy will host a Bible Study or spiritual practice gathering just for parents, either in person or on Zoom (childcare will be provided in the nursery if in person). Once a month, we’ll also have a social meet-up for parents and their children. Social outings will include things like a park playdate, or a visit to the Children’s Museum or Zoo.
This month’s events are:
- Sunday, November 8 at 10am in the Lindsay Room (just for the grown-ups)
- Saturday, November 21 at 10am at Winthrop Square Playground (for kids and grown-ups)
Contact Associate Pastor Amy Norton-Benfield at
amy@upbrookline.org with any questions.
