"Spiritual Lessons Learned from the Texas State Fair"

11am, Dr. Tracy Brown, Guest Speaker

Sanctuary & Livestream

 

You can’t experience the fall season in North Texas without visiting the State Fair of Texas. Wait. What? You’ve never been to the Fair? Or you haven’t been yet this year? Well, that’s okay. Tracy will fill you in on five spiritual lessons you can learn by going to this annual event that celebrates all things Texan. 

About Dr. Tracy:

Dr. Tracy Brown is the author of more than a dozen books, including her most recent: Stained Glass Spirit: Becoming a Spiritual Community Where Oneness Does Not Require Sameness. She has practiced and taught New Thought spirituality for more than 35 years, beginning at Unity Dallas.

 

Two fun facts about Dr. Tracy: #1: She is the host of “POETRY, PRAYER & PRACTICE” ... a weekly show on the New Thought Media Network. And, #2: some of her poetry is included in the book “BOUQUET OF STARS” – a collaborative anthology with mystic poet Chelan [shill-ANNE] Harkin and 12 other poets. Currently affiliated with Centers for Spiritual Living, Dr. Tracy is a Licensed Practitioner and her biggest focus is guiding people in the practical and consistent application of spiritual principle in daily life.

A Prayer for Children When They are Worried

by Steven Ray

 

Life in its mystery and wonder includes many times of uncertainty. Events and circumstances occur that we cannot control. At these times, we can easily find ourselves moving into fear and worry. It seems only natural to do so, like an automatic response, but Spirit knows better. We always, always have the power of choice, the power to come back to the present moment.

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.
