A First Church Tradition: Poetry Service DVD available
Poetry Service Held in Honor of Charles Foster

A First Church annual tradition is an intergenerational service that is devoted to poetry. Charles Foster, our poetry master of ceremonies, lead this service for many years. Unfortunately Charles, no longer lives in New Orleans and we miss his presence greatly. The 2008 Poetry Service was held in his honor on October 26, 2008.

Members and friends are invited to participate by reading their own poetry or a favorite by someone else. Our youth are encouraged to read poetry that speaks to them, too! Alice Abel Kemp, stepped up to be our "Poetry Goddess" in 2008.

If you would like to order a DVD or VHS of the wonderful poetry service held on October 26, please see Yvelyne or Henry McCarthy to order a copy. The total cost of $10 is dedicated to the Church to help with expenses. Please make checks payable to First UU Church.
