SUMMARY:FUF Programs Over the Ages
DESCRIPTION:Sharing their history\, a panelist of FUF members will talk about what has proved successful and challenging for Sunday Service Programs over the years. Having no minister\, FUF as a lay-led congregation creates the opportunity to engage a variety of speakers on a variety of subjects.  Rather than centering on individual tastes and preferences\, collective gathering is an act of generosity and hospitality.  Not every program may be to the liking of everyone\, but just our presence that hour may be what our fellow congregant needed. The next program may be the very one that speaks directly to YOU. Your input on Program Planning will be welcome.

SUMMARY:Brian Conway & Don Penzian Concert
DESCRIPTION:Live in Concert! \n\n\n\nTickets are only $20 in advance or $25 at the door!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPurchase tickets online\n\n\n\n\nBRIAN CONWAY performs with a skill\, grace and force that are steeped in tradition but distinctively his own. Well known in the Irish/Celtic community\, Conway has won numerous All-Ireland fiddling competitions\, and has been called one of the best fiddlers of his generation. His fiddle students\, including students in the Baltimore-Washington region\, have won multiple local\, regional\, and all-Ireland championships. He is a leading exponent of the tastefully ornamented Sligo fiddling style made famous by the late Michael Coleman. The winner of two All- Ireland junior titles and the All-Ireland senior championship of 1986\, Brian’s early studies were with his father Jim of Plumbridge County Tyrone and with Limerick born fiddler/teacher Martin Mulvihill. However\, it was the legendary fiddler and composer Martin Wynne who taught him the real secrets of the County Sligo style. Brian is currently promoting his latest CD titled Wallace Avenue. \n\n\n\nDON PENZIEN has long been a top-flight performer of Irish traditional music. He frequently is on the road playing concerts and festivals with Gailfean (Brian Conway\, John Whelan\, Máirtín de Cógáin)\, The Máirtín de Cógáin Project\, and Haley Richardson\, and he has served as accompanist for numerous other well-known performers (e.g.\, Gerry O’Connor\, Randal Bays\, Tim Britton\, Jimmy Crowley\, John Williams\, Pat Broaders\, Gabe Donohue\, Ben Jaber\, Tony DeMarco\, Billy McComiskey\, Sean Clohessy\, Bridget Fitzgerald\, Kevin Doyle). Widely recognized for his reserved backing style\, Don’s dexterous work on DADGAD-tuned guitar provides solid\, driving rhythms to traditional tunes as well as perceptive and sensitive accompaniments to songs and airs. Don is a Michigan native with strong roots in Irish culture and an affinity for Irish traditional music. He now resides in NC where he works as Professor at the Wake Forest School of Medicine.

SUMMARY:Members' Summer Stories
DESCRIPTION:Some of us have been running away from the heat and humidity and most of us are back. We’re even beginning to welcome back snowbirds. Some have remained steadfast in Baldwin County weathering what the climate threw at us. \n\n\n\nWe will sit in a circle and tell stories of our summers; of foreign parts\, of travel disasters\, of beautiful moments and dreams of vacations to come. No pressure; come even if you want to stay mum.
