| This Sunday: Leddy Hammock - Your Life's Work |
|
In this wonderful life, I reap what I sow. All God’s good is mine to give and to receive.
My life is God’s gift to me; what I do with my life is my gift to God and to the world.
I am a good worker: I serve with a song in my heart and I give thanks to God, my Source.
My work is to live the good life: to do my best, to love, to grow, and to serve God. I love my life’s work! |

“What you decide shall succeed for you, and upon your ways light shall shine” (Job 14:15-28).
“I can love like crazy, shine like gold, be courageous, break the mold. I can’t do it all, but
this much is true, I can do what I can do.” |

EFT - Tapping Group - New Zoom Link
|

Tuesdays
1:30 PM Zoom
What is Emotional Freedom Tapping (EFT)
Your body is more powerful than you may imagine, filled with life, energy, and a compelling ability for self-healing.
Like acupuncture and acupressure, Tapping is a set of techniques that utilize the body’s energy meridian points. You can stimulate these meridian points by tapping on them with your fingertips, literally tapping into your body’s own energy and healing power.
Gather with a great group of positive and supportive folks with healing in mind!

with The Rev Judy Tafelski

Eric
Butterworth's inspiring tour de force, the author shares the greatest
discovery of all time: the ability to see the divine within us all.
Jesus saw this divine dimension in every human being, and Butterworth
reveals this hidden and untapped resource to be a source of limitless
abundance. Exploring this "depth potential," Butterworth outlines ways
in which we can release the power locked within us for better health,
greater confidence, increased success, and inspired openness to let our
"light shine" forth for others.
All Are Welcome!

wonderful book ... truly a life-changer, as many readers know. This
book really does release the power within us all." -- Norman Vincent

Wednesday Evening "Faith Lift" Meditation Service with The Rev Judy Tafelski
|
|
Wednesdays
7:00 PM Livestream Only
Prayer is the foundation of the Unity movement and of Unity Church of Clearwater.
The Wednesday evening service features guided meditation, music, silence, and prayer.
Meditation
is the process of listening to the “still, small voice” of God within
us. Affirmative prayer is the highest form of creative thought and
includes the release of negative thinking as well as holding in mind
statements of spiritual Truth. The contemplative nature of entering into
the silence allows people of like mind to share the power of sitting in
the silence together.
We invite you to join us! This is an
opportunity to raise the consciousness of oneness that is at the core of
our Unity teachings.
Let us lift our consciousness to new heights through prayer and meditation, and help heal ourselves and our world!
