Mother's Day 💐
"She Had Eyes in the Back of Her Head"
11am, Rev. Lari Goold, Guest Speaker
Sanctuary & Livestream
Although I never saw them, I swear it is true that Mothers have eyes in the back of their heads! We all have a Divine Mother who knows and sees us and watches over us and loves us unconditionally. As we celebrate Mothers on this day, let's recognize This That Made Us as the mothering presence ever faithful.

“It’s God’s Will” (really?)
11am, Rev. Anne Tabor
Sanctuary & Livestream
We are excited to begin a new four-part Sunday Message Series where we’ll delve into the meaning behind some of our favorite spiritual platitudes. Have you ever noticed how these well-worn sayings can either bless us, annoy us—or both! Our journey begins with the transformative saying, "It's God's Will." Join Rev. Anne as she unpacks its true meaning and helps us discover... is it really?

Maternal Love is Eternal Love

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.
