we will honor our ancestors and remember those connected to us who we have loved and lost.
Many religions consider this time of year to be a sacred moment, when the veils between the worlds are thin, and we can connect with those who have gone before us. Today we will honor our ancestors and remember those connected to us who we have loved and lost. Our special guest will be the artist Susan Thompson who will help us dedicate a quilt she made. It is displayed in our Parish Hall, called “What my Grandmother Taught Me.” First Parish received this gift in the loving memory of longtime parishioner Lewis Counts by his wife Connee Counts and his daughters Laura and Margaret.
Susan Thompson is a textile, fiber and mixed media artist who lives and works primarily in the Greater Boston area. Through fabric, she creates unique designs, which sometimes tell stories that communicate the struggle and soul of her people. For more info visit www.TheArtOfSusanThompson.com.
