4th Sunday of Advent
"Joyful, Joyful"
11am, Rev. Rebecca Rickey
Sanctuary and Livestream on Facebook
It’s that time of the year when joy abounds and everyone is full of Christmas and holiday cheer, awe, and wonder. Really? Are we filled with joy or just making it through? Are we even happy that this season is upon us? This time of year can be challenging, tiring, and stressful. Even so, no matter the circumstances, there is joy to be found within and around us. Join us as we explore what it means to be, “Joyful, Joyful” in preparation for Christmas Eve, the birth of Jesus, and the coming of the Christ Consciousness in our minds, hearts, and lives.

"Release, Refresh and Renew"
11am, Rev. Lari Goold
Sanctuary and Livestream on Facebook
By releasing the old, we are able to awaken into newness refreshed, renewed, and ready to go! As we shed our old skin, we are rejuvenated and revitalized with fresh perspectives and a new energy of aliveness. We all have a new opportunity that awaits us to release, refresh, and renew. What will we do with it? Will we treat it as we have in the past or will we somehow make this a truly new and unique moment to springboard into something different and manifest our heart’s desires? What is God’s highest vision of our lives and what do we need to do to manifest THAT?.

Thanks to a dedicated team of volunteers and support from a local school counselor, we’re able to offer a safe, nurturing space where children and teens can engage in age-appropriate activities, connect with peers, and feel part of a warm, accepting community.

TREASURER’S REPORT
NOVEMBER 2025
For the month of November income was $25,103 and our expense was $19,459 leaving us with a profit for the month of $5,644.
For the first 11 months of the year through November, income was $221,960 and our expense was $236,110 for a deficit for the year of $14,151.
We are hopeful that a strong Love Offering in December will significantly reduce our deficit for the year. Our target for Love Offering in December is $30,000.
The Board is grateful for your continued support and asks that you prayerfully consider your love offerings as we close out our budget year.
P.S., If you have an individual retirement account (IRA) and you are 73 or older, required distributions from your account (RMDs) can be counted as income and are taxable. But did you know that you can avoid paying taxes on those distributions while decreasing your taxable income by making a charitable contribution of your IRA distribution to Unity? Such distributions reduce your taxable income.
For more information, please contact Sal Monaco, salmonaco01@gmail.com.
