This Sunday @ UCC:
Lesson Title: Saying Grace
|
|
Inspired by “I Made Room for Grace” by Sue Riley):
When I stumble, I won’t be defeated, since I make room for grace.
I stop resisting. I make room for grace.
I just step aside, open up a space, and make room for grace.
Now the blessings arrive every day, since I made room for grace.
A Unity Thanksgiving table blessing:
“Thank You for this time and place, this food, this life, blessed by Your grace. Amen.” |

Sanctuary
All are welcome to join us in the Peace Chapel for this half hour prayer vigil in honor of all those in our world known to have lost their lives through violence this year due to ignorance around gender expression. The names will be read and we will pray together, affirming a wiser and more loving world.
Many of these souls were "unidentified," yet we gather to make a statement together that their lives matter and together, we are affirming a wiser and kinder future for our world.
The Ladies of Uke will sing for us and a "tip jar" will be present to show our appreciation.
Join us as we remember and grow in understanding |

The yearly robe offering ceremony is a time of giving, for the laity to express gratitude to Buddhist monks.
Please

provide the community with excellent guidance throughout the year.
There will be several ways to participate:
You may choose to take your vows and receive a spiritual name
You may show your support by donating household items needed
Robes can be reserved and offered to the monastics in the name of loved one or a favorite cause. |

- Alms Round
- International Vegetarian Lunch

you would like to purchase a robe in honor of a family member, we will

The international vegetarian lunch will be provided by The Dhamma Wheel Meditation Society.
A $10 donation is requested in appreciation for the ceremony and lunch.
UCC Service Saturday volunteers are invited to have lunch as Dhamma Wheel's guests, though any love offerings are appreciated.
No one is ever turned away because of finances.

| | | | Our Unity Prayer walk is for memories.
Located on the north side of the Sanctuary there are two walkways to the labyrinth. The walkways are laid with beautiful brick pavers that can be engraved in honor or remembrance of loved ones.
There is also a special walk, called the Rainbow Bridge, near Peace Pond for memorializing beloved pets.
Purchase an engraved brick to . . .
Honor a cherished moment in time
Memorialize that special someone in your life
Express your love
Honor a friend
Remember a beloved pet
Simply offer thanks
An engraved brick in Unity Church of Clearwater’s Prayer Walk is a beautiful expression of remembrance and your legacy here is LOVE!
A love offering of $75 is requested per brick.
Engraved Brick Order Form
We send in five orders at a time for engraved bricks for our prayer walkway. We have three orders on file; when orders for two more orders are placed, we can send in a complete order.
Thanks and blessings! |

“Charles Fillmore has advised: ‘Meet every insidious thought, such as ‘I can’t,’ ‘I don’t know how,’ ‘I can’t see the way,’ with the declaration ‘The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.’ You ‘shall not want’ the wisdom, the courage to do, or the substance to do with when you have once fully realized the scope of the vast truth that Almightiness is leading you into ‘green pastures . . . beside still waters.’”
(Catherine Ponder in The Prospering Power of Love [Unity School of Christianity, 1966]
