This Sunday @ UCC:
Expecting - Judy Tafelski
|
|
Negative expectations do not help us, while positive and loving thoughts are manifesting now.
Every good thought, like an angel presence, goes before me to make my way easy, safe, prosperous, and happy.
I deny the stumbling blocks of doubt, fear, and worry, and instead I build up a strong and positive consciousness that paves the way to good outcomes.
I reflect on the good I expect, and as I conceive it, I receive it – or something even better! |

| | UCC Is Thriving Because of YOU!
|
| It's exciting to take part in well-attended services here among positive people who feel at home with us!
Here's how you are creating a culture of WELCOME at UCC and helping us to grow by going out of your way to:
- introduce yourself to first time guests seated near you, asking their first names and telling them you hope they will come back soon!
- going out of your way to say hello to folks carrying a blue "welcome bag," and offering to help them know their way around the church - with a smile!
- taking care to stop by the round "Welcome Table" in the Café to speak with folks who are seated there especially to be greeted!
- making sure to sit by someone new to you at every opportunity at UCC ("Saving seats" or claiming a particular place as "yours" because you're used to it would send a message that newcomers are not as welcome as "chums" or "the in-crowd" and may cause folks not to return. When someone asks, "Is this seat saved?" the best answer is, "Yes . . . for YOU! Please have a seat!"
Thanks for the many ways you express the UNITY WAY! |
| | | “In praying for guidance about [a] challenging job, the thought came to me that divine loe was to be my secret weapon; that love could win in this situation and could again bring victorious results of harmony and prosperity to this organization.
When I expressed these thoughts at that first board meeting, my ideas on divine love only provoked the two objecting board members, who scoffed at the ‘mere’ power of love for solving anything. They ‘told me off’ for even suggesting such a thing, and then they resigned. This proved to be love’s first step in clearing away inharmony.”
(Catherine Ponder in The Prospering Power of Love [Unity School of Christianity, 1966]
Your Weekly Prosperity Affirmation:
DIVINE LOVE NOW CLEARS THE WAY FOR HARMONY AND PROSPERITY.
THANK YOU, GOD!
