We're having an adventure in going with the flow! Last week, after all had been assured that the requirements for the School's certificiate of occupancy (allowing classes to open and permitting UCC to return to worship in our former sanctuary), a few more issues surfaced that the City requires be addressed before the c.o. can be granted. We think there's a good chance we might be able to return a week from this Sunday (July 28), but just in case, it's best to check our weekly eNews (or phone 727-531-0992 for in-person info), to make sure. We're getting closer every day! In any case, we'll send out our eNews each week and we're ready to send an additional email "blast" to confirm the date when we'll be gathering at 2433 (used to be 2465) Nursery Road for our 11:00 AM Sunday Service.
One day at a time! The path has certainly been long & challenging, but we have held together & we’ll finish strong!
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 old friends and new friends on Sundays on our home campus.
Our
beautiful new Church Home is being built for us in wisdom, love, and
divine timing and we are ready to receive it! |

This Sunday: Leddy Hammock - Dreaming and Doing
|
|
Lyrics to “I Dreamed of Rain,” by Jan Garrett
“I dreamed of rain and the rains came, soft and easy, sweet and clear ….
I dreamed of summer and the winds changed and the green was easy and the rivers ran clear ….
I dreamed of freedom and the moon rose and the way was easy and the path was clear ….
I dreamed of freedom and the moon rose …. I dreamed of heaven and the earth sang
and the sound was easy and the song was clear …. And peace spread over the land.” |
|

Last Sunday's Shining Words:
“When you have consecrated [all these things], they shall be most sacred; whatever touches them shall be sacred” (Ex. 30:29).
“Everything is sacred, everything is filled with the divine. Everything is alive with Spirit…” |

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!

"Dare to dream and see yourself as manifesting your aspirations, and your dreams, and your visions, as a reality. Dare to see yourself as successful, as healthy, as confident, as living a life of love and fulfillment. In time, if you're patient, and if you constantly entertain the dream in a very tender loving way, you will begin to see it come forth into manifestation. Remember, it's not a miracle of becoming something you're not, but it is the awakening to the depth of what you have always been. It is the releasing of your divine potential" (Eric Butterworth, Unity of NYC, 1970's). |
