The First Universalist Church of West Paris holds services at 9 a.m. Sundays at 208 Main St.

Members are continuing to wear masks during the worship service, and still singing to the music of Tom Coolidge.

This month’s schedule is as follows.

• March 6: Guest speaker Ellen Gibson will talk about “Inspiration, Hope, and Action” growing the Unitarian-Universalist community.

• March 13: “Our Transcendentalist Roots” will be led by the Rev. Fayre Stephenson. When Transcendentalism was thriving in the 1800s in the Boston and Concord area, most Unitarians and Universalists were not Transcendentalists. And yet the Transcendentalists’ gift to our Unitarian Universalist faith is immense, according to a news release from the church.

• March 20: “Our Souls Speak Spring” also led by Stephenson. This Sunday is the day of the Vernal Equinox — the day before the first day of spring. At this service attendees will consider the ancient traditions that surround the time when the northern hemisphere begins to tilt toward the sun.

• March 27: “Sheep vs. Doves: The Spiritual Significance of Doors and Windows in Christianity” will be led by Jennifer Wixson.
