    “Black History is Our History” Rev. David Carl Olson In February 1916, Dr. Carter G. Woodson led a small group of African American Historians to honor the birthdates of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln by celebrating Negro History Week.

    This Holy Fire with Rev. David Carl Olson

    Blue Christmas: At the Gate of the Year with Diana K. Davies

    December 18, 2016 December 25, 1939, England was at war, and the overall mood was one of fear and anxiety. In his Christmas radio broadcast, King George VI overcame his stutter to read a poem that asked the listener not to search for a light, but to go out into the darkness, to tread “gladly into the night.” Now, in this time of fear and anxiety, made worse by our own personal trials and losses, how can we learn to stop searching for a light, but go – if not gladly, then at least bravely – together, into the night? The First Unitarian Church of Baltimore is located at the corner of Charles and Franklin Streets in downtown Baltimore.  Services are held every Sunday at 11 a.m. During the summer, weekly worship services are held in the Enoch Pratt Parish Hall at 514 N. Charles St starting at 10:00 a.m. each Sunday. For more information, please visit our website or call the church office at 410-685-2330.
