Unity Construction Update:
Please be with us in prayer as we work to facilitate the envisioned outcome. UCC's Board is following the guidance of our attorneys, who feel we have a binding agreement in place with Southcrest to build our facility for the amount we were assured would provide our new Church Home according to the plans that were mutually approved last Spring. But, in order to proceed, our attorney's have notified Southcrest that UCC will be seeking another contractor to complete the building and pursuing legal remedy. We are happy to share the news that two other contractors have expressed interest in our project, and so far one has offered a letter of intent to build it. How exciting! We know our good cannot be withheld from us and we see our new building taking form in divine order.
We are deeply grateful for the steadfast faith of all those whose gifts of love and substance sustain our Church during this time of transition. We are glad to welcome a growing congregation of friends on Sundays at Beth Shalom!
Our
beautiful new Church Home is being built for us in wisdom, love, and
divine timing and we are ready to receive it!
Love and light, Leddy and all our UCC Family!

This Sunday: Leddy Hammock - Wholehearted
|
|
"There’s a new Church on the horizon, made of light, not of stone, calling now to all creation, ‘You are not alone.’”
“We are One Heart, looking for answers.
We are One Soul, finding our way through the dark.”
“Hold out your hand. Someone will take it and bring you home again.”
“We are One Heart, One Soul, One Dream we share together….
We are all a part of One Heart." |

Last Sunday's Shining Words:
“Jacob served seven years for Rachel, yet they seemed to him like a few days because of his love for her” (Genesis 29:20).
The deeper the river, the greater the trust and the more that we’re rising above.
We won’t be falling at all, we’ll be rising in love. |

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!

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!

We're checking mail every day, so checks sent through the mail are fine, as are checks sent from your bank's online bill pay.
If you feel led you might consider setting up an automatic recurring donation. This can be done through your bank's bill pay or on the Church's donation form.
We've also been asked about the processing fees the church has to pay when the online form is used. The fees are a small percentage (3-4%) of the total donation, however there is an option to cover fees that you may select if you feel so inclined. Every little bit helps and we're grateful if you decide to turn that option on.

"Our work, whatever it is, is to be a wholehearted service to the Lord, free from all ideas of labor and drudgery. While we look upon work merely as a means of support, it is burdensome. Freedom comes to us by our acknowledging God as our supply and doing faithfully whatever is ours to do. We must understand the creative law, and bring things to pass through our thought and spoken word" ("God, Our Support," Unity Correspondence School, 1927). |

OUR WEEKLY AFFIRMATION:
"I DO THE WORK I AM CALLED TO DO WITH GRATITUDE AND ENTHUSIASM AS I WHOLEHEARTEDLY SERVE THE LORD."
THANK YOU, GOD! |
