We'll be meeting in our former Sanctuary beginning this Sunday, August 4th!
Discovery Academy of Science has officially received its certificate of occupancy and Principal Akbaba has welcomed us "home."
This coming Sun, Aug 4th, we return to our former worship space at 2433 Nursery Rd for 11:00 AM Sunday services. Those who loved the relaxed "camp-style" of our "Unity Tent" days (2003-4) will love the casual atmosphere in our former Sanctuary (remodeled cafeteria of DAS) even more, since it's familiar, indoors, and has restrooms plus conditioning! Our wonderful UCC Teams will all be there to welcome us to the Unity we love!
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 - This Place
|
|
From lyrics to “This Place” by Richard Mekdeci
This place stirs my love for life, brings me home to paradise.
This place holds me in its arms, breathes on me the breath of God.
Oh, when I think about this place. It always heals me somehow.
This place --best of times, best of friends, the best of everything.
Every face in this place, I will be remembering.
*Leddy with Pat Warren, our Co-President of the Board of Directors, who has graciously taken so many fun photos for our eNews |

Last Sunday's Shining Words:
“If you have faith the size of a mustard seed .… Nothing will be impossible for you” (Mt. 17:20).
All we have to have is just a little faith. |

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!

PRAYER ..."is communion with God.... This communion is an attitude of mind and heart that lifts the individual into a wonderful sense of oneness with God, who is Spirit, the Source of every good and perfect thing..." (Myrtle Fillmore's Healing Letters).
We invite you to join us for a half hour of contemplative guided prayer time. The service is live streamed to our Facebook page so no need to log in to Zoom. You will not be on camera and can use this quiet time to observe or just listen to this peaceful meditation. Prayer brings beautiful changes.

(Apostle) "Paul says we seek a country from which we came forth, and to which we shall return. We are travelers that have wandered away from home and have not [always] found our wanderings pleasant. The outer [person] looks upon the home [we are] seeking as a place fixed in the heavens, but a fuller realization of Truth shows that this home is in the place Jesus pointed out—'the kingdom of God is within you.' Having once established yourself in this place it is an easy matter to externalize it.
We shall find the kingdom of God by closing the doors of the outer consciousness and turning the attention within" (Charles Fillmore, Cofounder of the Unity Movement, in his Temple Talks, ca 1915). |
