Something short here about our mission, etc. These are pics I grabbed offline.
The following copy is from another UU site:
Committees and teams are where much of the work of All Souls gets done, and there are lots of ways to get involved at All Souls. If you're interested in our beautiful old building, you could join the Building & Grounds committee. If you like to cook, consider helping prepare and serve at The Stone Soup Café. If you have financial expertise, a green thumb, or a desire to work for justice, there’s a committee for you!

Services in the Sanctuary, Sunday, December 7, 2025, 10:30 a.m.
Worship Leader: Reverend Douglas McCusker
Topic: "Hello Darkness My Old Friend"
Musicians: Laura Josephs Lemm and All Souls Choir (Rehearsal at 9:00 a.m.)
Hello Darkness My Old Friend: In almost all the ancient creation myths light emerges from darkness and time begins with the first cycle of day and night. Human existence has always known this beautiful dance of darkness and light, which has nurtured our sense of awe. But as we move toward a 24X7 pace of life on this planet we seem to believe that darkness is something to be conquered. What if we bathed ourselves so completely in our own light that we lost touch with darkness? What would be the spiritual consequences? Join Rev. Doug McCusker in a celebration of darkness as we move closer to the longest night of the year.
Rev. Douglas McCusker (he/him) is a retired Unitarian Universalist minister. He served two congregations as their minister: UU Congregation of Rockville, MD and the UU Fellowship of Fredericksburg, VA. He also led a Unitarian Universalist group at a men’s prison in Virginia. He is on the Nature staff and Healthy Relations team of the Southeast UU Summer Institute - SUUSI. Whenever he gets the chance, he leads groups in an outdoor sensory immersion practice known as Forest Bathing. Rev. Doug and his spouse Marie, live in North Adams, MA.
Laura Josephs Lemm is very happy to join the choir at All Souls! She lives in Greenfield with her husband Eric, five-year-old son Jordan, and epic downstairs housemate, Lynda. She loves making music of any variety, and most of her training is in classical piano. She is currently developing a musical version of typewriter rodeo, where you give her subject matter and she creates a personalized song for you on the spot... and she needs practice if you're interested!
Kirsten Johl Levitt has been a member of All Souls Church since 1999. She serves the congregation as its Clerk, sings in the choir, member of the worship committee, and is dedicated to constantly evolving and learning as a Sunday speaker and person. She is the executive director and chef of the Stone Soup Café.
