Please join us at <a href="https://uuwestport.org" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">UU&nbsp;Westport</a> this Sunday, where we welcome guest preacher the Rev. Adam Dyer to be with us. The topic for the day:&nbsp;What Do You Worship? Unitarian Universalists often use the word "worship" to describe what happens on Sunday mornings. If many UUs reject traditional religion, why do they hold on to the word "worship"...and more importantly, what exactly are they worshipping?Adam Lawrence Dyer is currently completing a Ph.D. in Modern and Contemporary Religious Thought at the University of Virginia where his research focus is equity, embodiment and liberal religion.&nbsp;&nbsp;He received his BA from Princeton University and his M.Div. from the Pacific School of Religion where he earned the Certificate in Sexuality and Religion and was recognized with the Paul Wesley Yinger Preaching Award.&nbsp;From 2017 to 2022, he was the lead minister at First Parish in Cambridge, and the Unitarian Universalist chaplain at Harvard University and is the author of a collection of meditations on blackness and liberal religion titled Love Beyond God(2016).&nbsp;Click <a href="https://uuwestport.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/OOS_5-24-26.pdf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">HERE</a> for the Order of Service. Please note, given the holiday weekend, there will be no Family Faith Formation programming or nursery care at this service. Families are welcome to bring their children into the sanctuary with them, or be in the foyer where they can watch the service but allow their children to "run free" a bit - with glass doors keeping things a bit quiet for the sanctuary activities.&nbsp;We are in the midst of a fundraising online auction.

St Theresa School

Get ready to shake, rattle, and roll! On Saturday, May 30, 2026, acclaimed tribute artist Lamar Peters will electrify the stage at St. Theresa School Trumbull with his unforgettable Ultimate Elvis Tribute Show. Showtime begins at 7:00 PM (doors open at 6:00 PM) for an evening packed with hits, dazzling showmanship, and the timeless magic of Elvis Presley.
This one-night-only performance will transport audiences through the golden eras of Elvis—from the rockabilly roots of the '50s to the Vegas glitz of the '70s. Expect to hear fan favorites like “Jailhouse Rock,” “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” “Suspicious Minds,” and “Burning Love”—all delivered with the uncanny vocals and magnetic presence that have made Peters a standout in the tribute world.
Born into a musical family in Astoria, NY, Lamar Peters took the stage at the age of five in his father, Gregg Peters (of King of Queens fame), Elvis shows. He’s since carved a remarkable path—the first Elvis tribute artist to play B.B. King Blues Club in Times Square, a top finalist in the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Contest, and a national touring act.
Tickets: $45 each for this BYO food and drink event and are available now by calling Rich at <a href="tel:203-258-8668">203-258-8668</a> or by stopping in St. Theresa Rectory 5301 Main Street Trumbull M-F until 9:00am - 4:00 pm.
