As we get new information we'll keep you up to date here in our eNews and with announcements on Sundays. The City of Clearwater approved the replat of the property last year and the sale of the property was completed in January. The fieldwork for the new traffic study was completed and seemed to show the same results as the original study. We are still waiting for the city to tell us the next steps.
Meantime, join us at 11:00 AM on Sunday mornings in person or by livestream!

This Sunday: Dreams of Freedom The Reverend Judy Tafelski, Associate Minister |
|
|
Inspired by lyrics to “I Dreamed of Rain” by Jan Garrett:
The Spirit indwelling inspires me with dreams of freedom.
“I dreamed of rain and the rains came, soft and easy, sweet and clear….” and peace spread over the land.”
Every soul dreams of freedom and deserves to be free from bondage.
“I dreamed of summer, and the winds changed and peace spread over the land.”
I dreamed of freedom and I know the Truth sets me free from all limitation.
“I dreamed of freedom and the moon rose, and the way was easy and the path was clear.”
I am a child of God, born to be free. “And the flowers bloom in the desert, and the air is fresh and clear.I dreamed of freedom and the moon rose and peace spread over the land.” |

We don't have a mask mandate at UCC. However, because UCC is pro-children and pro-families, we are encouraging vaccination for those who are eligible and asking folks to wear masks when near others indoors.
We are pausing our Pre-K childcare and nursery for the time being, in the interest of safety and well-being for all. We will all get through this together. |
|
| For now, let's do fist or elbow bumps and Namaste instead of hugs! |

Class: The Universe is Calling with The Rev Judy Tafelski
|
|
Tuesdays
7:00 PM
Zoom
Join Associate Minister, Judy Tafelski, for another inspiring class based on Eric Butterworth's book, The Universe is Calling.
From the Publisher:
In his much-beloved classic, The Universe is Calling, Eric Butterworth, Unity minister and acclaimed author of Discover the Power Within You, offers
a non-theological, non-ritualistic guide to prayer for contemporary
seekers of guidance, wholeness, and self-regulation. The call of the
universe, Butterworth explains, is the call to, “take charge of your
life, to release your imprisoned splendor.” His spiritually liberating
wisdom is powerful and inspiring, and it will lead readers to a truer
and stronger connection with the divine.
All are welcome to join the class!

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 |
|
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!

Thursdays 12:00 PM Zoom
Let's get together and chat!
Co-president of our Board, Deb Larkin, is hosting a weekly Zoom "Table Talk Thursday" call so we can see each others faces and hear each others voices.
Why Table Talk? Well, because that's one thing we miss during this time: sitting around a table in the café and talking together. The Table Talk will last about an hour. Feel free to drop in for a few minutes or spend the whole hour with us.

“People, by nature, desire to be independent.... You’re not truly independent until you realize that ‘independent’ is spelled and pronounced with the emphasis on the IN, INdependence.... as in, inward. By INdependence, we mean dependence on the indwelling spirit of God, the kingdom of God which Jesus identified as being within you.… If your dependence is on this realm, there is nothing in the world that can hurt you, defeat you, or prevent you from enjoying the good that your Creator, God, has in mind, as prepared for you. Charles Roth, in Mind, the Master Power, “The Spiritual Power of Independence” (edited by Leddy Hammock). |

OUR WEEKLY AFFIRMATION:
“I AM DEPENDENT ON THE INFINITE POWER WITHIN ME, SO I AM INDEPENDENT.”
THANK YOU, GOD! |
