Sermons from First Parish Unitarian Universalist of Arlington Massachusetts
Ebonié Smith-Cooper, Meadville Lombard Seminarian, preaching Worship service given March 30, 2025 Prayer by Loren Gomez, Worship Associate https://firstparish.info/ First Parish A liberal religious community, welcoming to all First gathered 1739 According to Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis, Love is the call [in] our lives. Ebonié Smith-Cooper, Meadville Lombard Seminarian and First Parish member, asks how can we pursue love for one another in times of distress? Ebonié Smith-Cooper (she/they) is an aspiring minister who is currently attending Meadville Lombard Theological School. In Ebonie's free time she enjoys coaching in-town sports, listening to podcasts, and playing card games with their family. For March 2025, the Giving First recipient is the Resilient Sisterhood Project. Cambridge-based Resilient Sisterhood Project's mission is to educate and empower women of African descent regarding common, yet rarely discussed, diseases of the reproductive system that disproportionately affect them. They approach these diseases and associated issues through a cultural and social justice lens since they understand that poor knowledge of reproductive health is primarily related to health, racial, and socioeconomic disparities. RSP brings an expansive definition to and understanding of the word “women” to include transgender women, cisgender women, gender queer, and gender non-conforming people who have a female reproductive system.

About our Lead Minister: Rev. Marta Flanagan began her ministry as our twentieth called minister at First Parish in the fall of 2009. She is a genuine and forthright preacher. In conversation she is direct and engaging. She speaks of prayer with as much ease as she laughs at human foibles. We call her “Marta.” Marta is a religious liberal, a theist, a feminist, and a lover of the woods. As a student of American history at Smith College she was captivated by the stories of social reformers who were motivated and sustained by their faith. That led her to consider the ministry and to study at Harvard Divinity School from where she was graduated in 1986. She was the first woman minister in the city of Salem, Massachusetts, serving at the First Universalist Church there (1987-1997). She served in a co-ministry at South Church (Unitarian Universalist) in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, (1997-2005) from where she is minister emerita. Marta served as interim minister in Montpelier, Vermont (2008-2009). She is trained as a spiritual director. For three years she lived in the Vermont woods practicing voluntary simplicity and the spiritual life. Marta enjoys the vitality of First Parish and our strong sense of community. She celebrates the yearning for depth and the desire to make a difference in the world that she finds here.

From the Christian Post: A powerful tornado tore through a historic church in southern Mississippi over the weekend, leaving the congregation of O'Zion Baptist Church in Meadville to rely on their motto, "Small church, big heart," as they begin to rebuild for a second time from a tornado. The storm, part of a severe weather outbreak across the South, destroyed much of the church, which was established in 1917, on Saturday night, hurling the steeple into a nearby stand of trees, Fox Weather reports. https://www.christianpost.com/news/mississippi-tornado-leaves-couple-unscathed-in-church-wreckage.html?clickType=link-topbar-news

If There Is No Struggle There Is No Progress: Black Politics in Twentieth-Century Philadelphia (Temple UP, 2022) provides an in-depth historical analysis of Philadelphia politics from the days of the Great Migration to the present. Philadelphia has long been a crucial site for the development of Black politics across the nation and this volume emphasizes how Black activists have long protested against police abuse, pushed for education reform, challenged job and housing discrimination, and put presidents in the White House. If There Is No Struggle There Is No Progress demonstrates that “Philadelphia must be central to any analysis of African American political history.” But politics means more than elected office and the book highlights political strategies such as the "Don't Buy Where You Can't Work" movement and the Double V campaign. It demonstrates how Black activism helped shift Philadelphia from the Republican machine to Democratic leaders in the 1950s and highlights the election of politicians like Robert N. C. Nix, Sr., the first African American representative from Philadelphia. The book highlights grassroots movements and the intersection of race, gender, class, and politics in the 1960s and shows how African Americans from the 1970s to the present challenged (white) Mayor Frank Rizzo and helped elect (Black) Mayors Wilson Goode, John Street, and Michael Nutter. Dean James Wolfinger (he/him/his) serves as dean of the School of Education at St. John's University in Queens, New York. Dr. Stanley Arnold (he/him/his) is an Associate Professor of American History at Northern Illinois University. Dr. Alyssa Ribeiro (she/her/hers) is the Henry A Logan, Sr, Professor of American History at Allegheny College in Meadville, Pennsylvania.

Pinkney v. Meadville PA
Happy Halloween week! Chris, Kirby and Bo embraced the spirit
Dave McMillin is not from Erie originally, he's from Pittsburgh, and he now lives in Meadville. But he played plenty of gigs in Erie and all over the country in the 1970s and 80s with his band McMillin & Life, which is a spoof of the name of the old TV series "McMillan and Wife." He still plays today, and he has no plans of retiring. Thanks to the JPT Foundation for sponsoring the Erie Music History podcast. The goal of the foundation is to provide education scholarships to grade school-age children as well as annual giving to local organizations and charities. The foundation has a large hall that hosts bingo four days a week and is available for rentals, and it is also the home of this podcast's monthly music night, which is the first Tuesday of the month from 6-9. Many thanks to the folks (like Angelo Phillips!) who have donated to the podcast. If you would like to help out, Venmo me at @Dan-Schell-6.

Family Life's "Staycation Destinations" for Summer 2023 Tucked into the Finger Lakes region of New York is the Women's Rights National Historical Park. It's so appropriate that this launching point of a major movement in American culture is this week's "Staycation Destination", because this week is the 175th anniversary which made Seneca Falls a historic site. On July 19-20, 1848, more than 300 people gathered at the Weslyan Methodist Chapel for a first-of-its-kind Women's Rights Convention. The event resulted in a "Declaration of Sentiments", a document which paralleled the Declaration of Independence of 72 years earlier and which now is recognized as the founding statement of the women's rights movement which eventually would spread through the nation and the world. The declaration was signed by 100 women and men. Park Ranger Rebecca Weaver gives us the inspiring stories of that Convention which predates the Civil War, details of the 175th anniversary celebration there and throughout the Seneca Falls community (July 21-23, 2023), and an inviting glimpse into what the Park offers for its visitors year-round. During scheduled programs, reenactors portray Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Mary Ann M'Clintock and other leaders of the movement. As part of the National Park Service, the Women's Rights Park charges no admission fees, and it is open 362 days a year. Seneca Falls is in the Finger Lakes region, near a midpoint between Syracuse and Rochester. - - - - This week's Side Trip Suggestion: Sculptures made of old metal highway signs. Go a mile or so east of the Meadville exit off I-79 in western Pennsylvania, and you will see a wide-ranging quarter mile of unique art. Sculptures and panoramas at the PENNDOT facility along the north side of Highway 322 have been made from out-of-service reflective metal road signs. See if you (and your travel companions) can find anything from hot air balloons, to a Ferris Wheel, to a singing cowboy, to 3-D flower gardens. (Park at a safe place nearby, and walk along the display called "Read Between the Signs".) [New this summer, each of our "Staycation Destinations" podcast posts will also describe one additional tourist site in the Family Life listening area. It could be a quirky attraction, a new activity, or something else that you may discover is worth seeking out.]
The inbred cannibal pig people who are said to inhabit Pig Hill in Meadville, PA attack teenagers who park on its lovers lane. But these are far from the only human-pig hybrids featured in American urban legends. For this episode, not only are we sharing different variations of the tale, but we are also digging deep into the weird history of pigs: Puritan bestiality trials, soldier-eating feral swine, hybrid animal experiments, the pigs who ruled the early cities, and what the history of the hog teaches us about suburbanization and the dehumanization of those the elite consider "unclean."

Episode 59 Debra Daniel and Candice Caffas68 year-old Meadville Pennsylvania resident Debra Daniel was last seen on August 15, 2022. Debra, who was Bipolar, lived in her own apartment at the Holland Towers apartment complex on Market Street. Debra, who didn't drive, frequently visited her mom who had recently been admitted to a nursing home. Despite the nursing home being miles from Debra's apartment, she always found a way to visit her mom whether it meant walking, or hitching a ride. The last time she was seen on August 15, 2022, she was at the nursing home. When her friends and family realized she was missing and came to do a welfare check on Debra, they found her apartment clean and everything in order. The bag that Debra had been seen with at the nursing home the day she vanished was there indicating that she made it home to her apartment after the visit. But there was no sign of Debra, and she hasn't been seen since. In Meadville, a town of 12,000 residents, people going missing isn't common, but Debra's case is not an isolated one. It turns out that on July 15, or 16, 2022, a month before Debra vanished, 34 year old Candice Caffas left her Crawford County home on the 9100 block of Mount Pleasant Road in Union Township, south of Meadville, and she hasn't been seen since. Like Debra, Candice suffered from mental illness; a condition called Prader-Willi syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that results in a number of physical, mental and behavioral problems. It's troubling that 2 vulnerable women vanished a month apart in a small town. But are their cases connected? There have also been unconfirmed rumors that a third woman went missing shortly before Candice vanished, but details are sketchy. If there are indeed 3 missing women from that area over a very short time, it's even more troubling.Debra's and Candice's families are desperate to find out what happened to them.In this episode, Debra's niece Anne Puckett discusses her aunt's case, as well as Candice's.If you have any information about Debra Daniel or Candice Caffas, please call the Meadville Police Dept at 814-332-6911To learn more about Debra's case or help in the search for her, visit her Facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/DebrasuedanielYou can also email about Debra's case to:helpusfindher@yahoo.comTo learn more about Candice's case, or help in the search for her, visit her Facebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/376387407932527orhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/3966452570247621If you'd like to support this podcast via a donation, you can do so through Patreon here-https://www.patreon.com/MissingPodcastTo contact the podcast or learn more about the cases we discuss visit:Missingpersonspodcast.netFollow us on Social media-Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Missing-Persons-Podcast-103501877912153orTwitter:https://twitter.com/Missing_Pod

In this conversation, she discusses how her sports background inspired her to get into Yoga and eventually open her own studio, plus how the Edinboro Beehive assisted in some apparel design. Finally, the talk moves to how the business community in Meadville supports locally-owned businesses.
