Kelly Weisman Asproooth-Jackson is young, intellectually probing, socially minded, and deeply caring. He is also a wonderful writer and speaker; your favorite college professor times two. The music is very good with a fine choir and a highly accomplished organist and choir director, Robert Littlefield. Children are encouraged to participate and often included in the musical programming. The RE Director, Deb Sweet, has all the kids come down front each week for an interactive story before heading off to Sunday school. The services are very inclusive. The youth programs are excellent. There are many ways to actively serve the community such as the Tuesday night suppers for the hungry and Family Promise for those in need of temporary housing while looking for work. The congregations is welcoming and there are lots of children--always a sign of a healthy congregation. The spiritual focus is open-minded and questioning rather than dogmatic: Unitarianism at its finest. Lots of "formers": Catholics, Jews, Congregationalists--lots of people seem to find a home here. Standing on the Side of Love is not just a slogan here; it's a way of life. All in all a great place to become a member of a community.

I read the other review about the priest here not being friendly. The problem is not that he's…read moreunfriendly, but that he seems to be angry ... a lot. And judgmental! Also, I don't "get it" when these younger priests (he appears to be under 40) prance around in cassocks and those funny looking hats with the pom poms (can't think of the name of them). I thought the reforms of Vat 2 did away with all that "finery." I'm sure he "means well," but Father, chill, will ya with the ecclesiastical drag. And it's not the local pastor's fault, but what is it with this new translation of the Mass? I'm sure the sentence structure was fine in Latin, but in English is awkward at best and not understandable at its worst. I see it as a sign of the creeping exlusionary policies of the RC church. We sing "All are Welcome," but we mean "Some, but not All, are Welcome." We used to be regular attendees at St. Mary's back in the 80's and 90's, (my wife and I both went to the school through 8th grade) but we started going to the Paulist Center in Boston when St. Mary's took a 180 degree turn in 1997 back to the 19th century. We go to St. Mary's when we cannot get into Boston or we go to the Unitarian meeting house a few steps away where we know we are not going to get a political barage about contraception and same sex marriage, but will be accepted where we are.
