Introducing the Reverend Beau Rivers
The Ministerial Search Committee and The Board of Trustees of All Souls Braintree are happy to announce our new minister, The Reverend Beau Rivers (she, her, hers), will begin her ministry with us August 1, 2021! Rev. Beau received her call to ministry after a 15-year career in retail management and a 15-year career in social work. The daughter of French-Canadian immigrants and descendants of the Wolastoqiyik [pronounced: Wall-a-stow-key-ick] First Nations of Canada, she grew up, a First GenerationAmerican, in Lewiston, Maine and moved to Portland, Maine upon completion of her undergraduate degree at the University of Southern Maine.
Reverend Rivers received her MDiv at The Andover Newton Theological School in Newton Centre, MA. Prior to her ordination, she served as Contract Minister at The Unitarian Universalist Church of Weymouth, MA and as WorshipWeb Assistant and Chaplain Coordinator at The Unitarian Universalist Association in Boston, MA. She comes to us after having served as Sabbatical Minister at The United First Parish Church of Quincy, MA during the first six months of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Come Meet Our New Minister
We will welcome the Reverend Beau Rivers on Saturday, August 14, from 3 to 5 pm at a Meet and Greet Picnic on the Parish Lawn. If we have inclement weather, we will move into the Parish Hall.
If anyone would like to help with set-up, please meet Joe Maloney at the church at 2 pm. Please contact Joe with any questions.

All Souls Church's regularly scheduled programs
continue online.
Connection Circles are our small group offerings.
Monday Mid-Day Meetup
Meet up with us for some online conversation and companionship. Talk about whatever is on your heart. Every Monday afternoon, we let the conversation evolve informally. Like many conversations, we never quite know what topic will pop up. Sometimes a serious or personal topic springs from our initial check-ins, and group members become compassionate listeners. Mondays at 3:30 pm.
Friday Morning Coffee Hour
Join us Fridays at 10 am for online coffee and conversation with a theme, relying on group participants to provide a focus for the discussion. Every Friday we build more structure into our conversation, which is similar in feel to small group ministry. After a brief check-in, a volunteer from the group presents something they have prepared in advance to focus the direction of the discussion.
