Membership Classes
Thursdays, May 2nd & May 9th
7pm – 9pm on Zoom
Rev. Anne Tabor
Unity of Arlington is a loving, thriving spiritual community that honors all paths to enlightenment. And we’d love to have you join us as an official member! Membership is not required for attending services or serving at Unity of Arlington. However, we encourage it as a way for an individual to commit to his or her own spiritual growth, and make meaningful connections with other like-minded people in faith.
Active members attend services regularly, participate in events, invest their time and talents in our church, attend classes, and contribute their financial gifts to Unity of Arlington. Members also participate in voting on important church matters.
Classes required for membership are offered in two parts and will cover: Unity Basics, Unity Prayer, and Membership Basics. There will also be a time for questions and discussion. To become a member, attendance is required at both classes.
Please note: Our Bylaws now state that anyone desiring membership in UofA, regardless of city, state or country of residence may, after three months of regular, in-person or online attendance and completion of UofA new member orientation classes, file an application for membership.
Since these classes are conducted on Zoom, you can participate from anywhere in the world!
We look forward to seeing you there!

Volunteer for a Packing Party
Often, survivors of domestic abuse flee their situations with nothing but the clothes on their backs or, if they’re fortunate, they’ve created a safety plan to come with very few essential items for their family. Recognizing this need, we created the “I See You” box. Each box is carefully curated to provide personal care items and tokens to boost self-esteem and mental wellness.
These boxes symbolize love, hope, and support, and they make a meaningful impact on the lives of survivors.
You can join an existing packing party in your community or host one of your own. Whether with friends, work colleagues, or your social group, you can make a difference together.

Reverend Anne Tabor, M.Div., is available by appointment for spiritual counseling sessions at Unity of Arlington in a safe and supportive environment. As an ordained Unity minister, Rev. Anne, offers spiritual counseling to individuals seeking a deeper under-standing of themselves and their divine power within to solve life's challenges. Spiritual counseling can help if there is a need for inspiration, crisis support, or healing in any area of your life. Prayer and meditation are an integral part of Unity's spiritual principles, and an essential practice in realizing the answers we seek. We believe in the transformative power of affirmative prayer. You are a unique expression of God. Spiritual counseling will remind you of that!
Spiritual counseling is offered on a love offering basis. While no specific fee is expected or suggested, we do invite each person to leave a love offering. For more details, please call the church office 817-467-5151.
