Carrie Kenyon and team leaders who's time and energy is put into our various projects. Thanks to Laurie Clark who creates the news letter, web site and order of service Power Point. Special Thanks to our board. Our fellowship team has been providing delicious meals for us. Sandy, Sue, Melissa and all the others who contribute. And special thanks to our Prayer team that keeps us connected to our Godselves.
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!
Romans 12:10: "Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other."
As we enter into the holiday season our lives step up a notch. Not only are we joyous and thankful but our lives become busier with more responsibilities, events and commitments. This is time for focusing on giving, loving and praying.
Romans 15:13: "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in faith so that you overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
We could take this time to embrace the meaning of Unity in that it promotes a way of life that leads to health, prosperity, happiness and peace of mind. The Unity movement has established centers of study and worship throughout the world where people discover and practice the Unity way of life. We address physical, mental and emotional needs through affirmative prayer and spiritual education. We serve those who seek inspiration and prayer support as well as those who use Unity teachings as their primary path of spiritual growth.
We are each individual, expressions of God. Our basic nature is divine and therefore inherently good. Our purpose here is to express our divine potential as demonstrated by Jesus and other master teachers. The more we wake to our divinity, the more God is expressed in our lives.
Unity founders Charles and Myrtle Fillmore studied the Bible as history and allegory and interpreted it as a metaphysical representation of humankind's evolutionary journey toward spiritual awakening. In addition, Unity recognizes that the Bible is a collection of writings compiled over many centuries. We honor the writings as reflecting the understanding and inspiration of the writers at the time they were written. The Bible continues to be a valuable spiritual resource for us.
John 14:27: "Peace I leave with you. My peace I give you. I give to you not as the world gives. Don’t be troubled or afraid."

The Burning Bowl Ceremony- December 29th During Service
A burning bowl ritual is a ceremony that helps people release unwanted thoughts, or conditions in their lives, and make room for the new. The ritual involves writing down what you want to let go of on a piece of paper and then burning it in a fire.
Letters to God - December 29th During Service
a gathering where participants write personal letters expressing their hopes, gratitude, or concerns to a higher power, we place them in a designated container to represent sending them "to God". We then give them back next year so you can see where you were last year.
