    FRS Sanctuary 26 Pleasant St, Newburyport, MA, United States

    Sanctuary, first Sunday of the month, led by Rev. Alan Seale.

Alan Seale at 8am on the first Sunday of the month for a half-hour contemplative worship experience—a space and time to be present with the simplicities and complexities of life in the quiet embrace of the FRS Sanctuary. The sanctuary will be open to welcome you from 7:50am. The service will include quiet piano music, a brief message or reading, and periods of silent reflection and meditation.
