| The Discovery Academy of Science purchased five acres of our campus in 2022, promising to maintain the entire parking lot, which is deeded to be shared with Unity. Discovery Academy is a Charter School, funded in the same way as all other public schools in the Pinellas County school district and receiving its operating funds from the Florida Education Finance Program based on the number of full-time students–in this case, grades K through 8 – and they have a long waiting list, because it’s a great school! Right now, the School’s builder must correct errors made by the subcontractor in the sewer alignment on Nursery Rd, after which the School can get their certificate of occupancy and Unity will be welcome to hold Church services in our former space. |

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 new friends on Sundays!
Our
beautiful new Church Home is being built for us in wisdom, love, and
divine timing and we are ready to receive it!
Love and light, Leddy and all our UCC Family!

This Sunday: Leddy Hammock - Search the Sky
|
|
Inspired by lyrics to “Search the Sky” by Sloan Wainwright:
Search the sky for that star of light and love, to guide believers from near and far.
Let the light of peace and love shine in every heart.
Let there be peace around our world, peace within ourselves.
Let Truth, love, and healing shine in all our faces. |
|
|
Last Sunday's Shining Words:
“This will be a sign for you: you will find an infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger” (Lk. 2:12).
Make of my heart a stable , Lord, shining for miles in the darkness, so Love will find its way there. |

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!

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 other's faces and hear each other's 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.

The Magi from the East: "The stored-up resources of the soul, which rise to the surface when its depths are stirred by a great spiritual revelation. They are the inner realms of consciousness . . . . These "Wise-men" represent the wisdom that is carried within the soul .... previous incarnations. The East represents the within, [hu]man[ity]'s inner consciousness" (Charles Fillmore, Cofounder of the Unity Movement). |
