Easter Sunday
“Expecting the Unexpected”
Sunday, March 31, 2024
11am, Rev. Anne Tabor
Sanctuary & Livestream
The beauty of Easter lies not only in its promise of renewal but also in its reminder to expect the unexpected. Our Master Teacher could have resisted the cross, but he chose to face it and go beyond. In other words, it is the crucifixion that leads to the power of the resurrection!
And just as the disciples were awestruck by the resurrection of Jesus, the deeper meaning for us is that we, too, can encounter moments of Divine intervention from the depths of despair.
So, as we dye eggs and nibble on chocolate bunnies, let’s remember to embrace the timeless wisdom of Easter—that we can rise above our darkest moments with courage and faith. Join Rev. Anne as she delves into the spiritual teachings of Easter, lighting the way for us to discover our own path to resurrection!

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!

The long-told story of Jesus’ crucifixion, entombment, and resurrection is the story of our lives. We resonate with its loss, darkness, and new life because we cycle through the same process time and again in our human lifetimes.

Unity Books Presents: 100 Years of Daily Word
|
|
|
Celebrating the Daily Word Centennial
by Rev. Teresa Burton
When I discovered Unity in the summer of 2000, Daily Word was the first of its publications I read. The tone and messages were positive and encouraging and jibed with the uplifting church services I had begun to attend. Right away I could feel something shifting within me, as I got a glimpse into a new, more hopeful way of living. I remember it felt almost too good to be true. Daily Word became my companion that summer, and in the years that followed it has been a comfort and an inspiration.
