"Give It Time"

11am, Rev. Anne Tabor

Sanctuary & Livestream

 

Time is precious. It is a thread that weaves everything together. 

 

And so, what matters most is what we choose to do with it! After all, “give it time” doesn’t mean idly waiting for things to just happen. It means tuning into what matters most. 

 

Join Rev. Anne to explore how nurturing your Divine relationship with time will create a powerful path of growth and transformation in your life.

"Pray It Forward"

11am, Rev. Anne Tabor

Sanctuary & Livestream

 

In his book, Prayer: the Master Key, James Dillet Freeman wrote “The whole purpose of my prayers—whether I pray for myself or someone else—is to unify myself with God, with the Creative Spirit.”

 

In honor of Unity World Day of Prayer, join Rev. Anne to look at what affirmative prayer is and how to practice it. You might be surprised to learn that prayer is an act of love. And … did you know there is one prayer that always has the power to help others? Join us Sunday to find out what that is!

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.
