Juneteenth and Father’s Day
“Spiritual Emancipation”
Sunday, June 19, 2022
11am CT, Dr. Tracy Brown, RScP, Guest Speaker
Hybrid Service (online and in-person)
 
Emancipation implies a transition from limitation to freedom. Whether the limitation has been created by internal or external forces, the journey to true freedom requires a deep connection to Spiritual Principle. New Thought teaches us about emancipation from old lies and false beliefs. Tracy will remind us that Freedom is our birthright and will challenge us to take a stand to ensuring this Truth for all humanity.

“Pride (and Prejudice)”
Sunday, June 26, 2022
11am CT, Rev. Anne Tabor
Hybrid Service (online and in-person)
 
During June, we’ve been celebrating Pride Month… a time for all LGBTQ+ communities to rejoice in being themselves. Of course, in Unity, every month is Pride Month! Now more than ever it is vital for us as a beloved community to live this Truth. After all, progress doesn’t mean that discrimination has disappeared. We want more pride and less prejudice. Join Rev. Anne as she takes a deeper look at how our spiritual principles assure us that we are all created with sacred worth.

Dear Friend,
 
When facing a challenging situation, we have it within our power to activate the faculty of mind that can help us see our way through. Imagination allows us to redirect our attention away from the challenge to a picture of our desired outcome. The picture has the potential to become a living reality.
 
The imaging power of mind strengthens our ability to see things not as they are but as they can be. Imagination backed by faith sets in motion an energetic vibration resulting in answered prayer.
 
We activate imagination when we close our outer eyes to the challenge and allow an inner picture to take center stage in our mind. The beauty of imagination is that it works during tough times as well as when things are going well. We may access this great power whenever we choose. We need only turn within.
 
You may also want to …
 
 
Peace and blessings,

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.

UNITY'S FIVE BASIC PRINCIPLES
 
Principle #1:
There is only one Presence and one Power in the Universe and in my life, God the Good.
 
Principle #2:
Human beings have a spark of divinity within them, the Christ spirit within.
Their essence is of God, and therefore they are also inherently good. 
 
Principle #3:
Human beings create their experiences by the activity of their thinking.
Everything in the manifest realm has its beginning in thought.
 
Principle #4:
Prayer is creative thinking that heightens the connection with God Mind and therefore brings forth wisdom, healing, prosperity, and everything good.
 
Principle #5:
Knowing and understanding the laws of life, also called Truth, are not enough.
A person must live the truth he or she knows.
 
CORE VALUES
Spirit-Led:
Centered in the awareness of God's presence, we turn within for divine guidance in all we do.
 
Love:
Love is our True Nature. We express the harmonizing power of love to see good everywhere and in everybody. Love binds together the whole human family.
 
Diversity:
We believe that all people are created with sacred worth. In a spirit of Unity, we embrace each person as an expression of God grounded in truth and love.
 
Connection:
We live, love, and laugh from our Oneness with God. We honor our inter-connectedness with each other, with all life, and the earth.
 
Abundance:
God is our Infinite Source of Good. We gratefully demonstrate prosperity in all areas of our lives. We wisely use our wealth of resources to serve our spiritual community and the world.
 
Service:
We cultivate enlightened leadership by practicing the teachings of Jesus the Christ through sacred service. It is a blessing to serve locally and globally.
 
Integrity:
We consciously choose to practice living our Core Values and Unity Principles rather than simply professing them. We choose to communicate from the heart with authenticity and deliver on our commitments with reliability.
