Ministerial Candidate Audition
"I Say, "Yes!'"
11am, Rev. Rebecca Rickey
Sanctuary & Livestream on Facebook
Are you saying “Yes!” to life? What guides you in your decision making and how do you know when to say “Yes” to being more present and more alive to life? We have opportunities every day to say, “Yes!” to more abundant living, to more life, to more joy, to more love and compassion for ourselves and others. What is nudging you that wants to be manifest in your experience and will you say, “Yes!”? Will you ignore it until it creates ways to get your full and undivided attention? Guidance is always available, and signposts present themselves that point us to the right and perfect choice for our lives, for the life of our community, and for the collective life of our planet. Join us as we discuss how saying “Yes!” moves us along our spiritual path.

Now that all the rainbow ducks have left the plucking pond, we can officially say the Unity of Arlington PRIDE booth was a raving success. With a consistent line of PRIDE festival attendees, the Unity volunteers talked to so many people that we ran out of SWAG.....that's THOUSANDS of people.
Thank you to the Board, the volunteers, the Marketing team and a special thanks to Julie West for the brilliant booth idea, "Pluck a Duck". See you next year ArlingtonPRIDE!

Spiritual Leadership in Challenging Economic Times
By Rev. Jim Blake
In Unity, we believe leadership is not about pretending challenges don’t exist but about facing them while being grounded in spiritual understanding. In times of uncertainty, spiritual leaders are called not only to navigate challenges but to embody and model the Truth they affirm.
Here are some ways we can lead with faith, speak with intention and clarity, and hold ourselves to a consciousness of abundance in the midst of apparent lack.
