Part 3: “Dancing Through Your Life's Transitions"

11am, Rev. Anne Tabor

Sanctuary & Livestream

 

Every ending brings the promise of a new beginning—and let’s be honest, sometimes we approach those new beginnings like a toddler refusing to hand over their last cookie!

 

Join Rev. Anne as we wrap up our series on Finding Yourself in Transition: Using Life's Changes for Spiritual Awakening by Robert Brumet.

 

We’ll reflect on the challenges of change and maybe even have a good laugh at how hard it can be to let go. But here’s the secret: life’s transitions aren’t roadblocks; they’re dance floors! So, let’s ease on down the road and step boldly into the light of new beginnings!

“Mission Possible"

11am, Rev. Anne Tabor

Sanctuary & Livestream

 

Well, here we are! From my first “Mission Possible sermon back in 2015 to this very moment, we’ve been on quite the spiritual adventure together. We’ve walked through enough plot twists, turns, and Texas-sized surprises to make us wonder if we were in a Twilight Zone episode! And much to our delight—sometimes it felt more like a sitcom!

 

You are invited to join us for my last joy-filled Sunday Finale! We’ll have some laughs about the good, the quirky, and those “only-God-could-create” moments. Let’s celebrate this journey with a whole lot of heart and humor… and one final hoorah! 

 

Together, let's close this chapter with the same faith and love that brought us here, trusting that every step we've taken has prepared us for the next great adventure ahead.

The Sacred Promise of Intentions

by Rev. Ellen Debenport

 

In a spiritual sense...it is possible to choose our intentions consciously, not merely assuming we intend goodwill but as a means of expressing our divine essence.

FOR THE COMMON GOOD

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.



Election Day is November 5, 2024

 

Did you know that in 2020, less than 80 percent of Texas’s voting age population registered to vote, and just more than half of eligible voters cast a ballot, according to state data? (source: Texas Secretary of State website: https://bit.ly/4efqvvh)

 

If you're not registered to vote in the November 2024 general election, the deadline to register is October 7. 

 

Don't know if you're registered? You can check that and find your polling location at votetexas.gov. You have to register to vote by mail or in person - there is no online option.

 

If you recently moved, changed your name, or need to update any other details, the October 7 deadline is also your last chance to make those changes.

 

Early voting begins October 21 and ends November 1. If you want to vote by mail, the last day to apply is October 25.
