This Sunday @ UCC:
Lesson Title: Teaching Love
|
|
God is one and God is Love. We love God and we love each other. God does not want us to be hurt or to hurt others.
God is love and wants us to be loving. We are all about love. When we love, we know we are not alone.
We don’t have to be mean. We can be kind. I choose love, no matter what others do.
When we put our differences behind us, the world looks new. Something as simple as kindness can see us through.
Jesus teaches love. God is love. Love is our trademark. We choose love.
There's so much hope to hold onto, because what Jesus taught has everything to do with love. |

Always Interesting, Worth Being Late for Lunch, I Wish I Would Have
Attended in Years Past, Really Very Important Annual Business Meeting
:-)

past year’s performance and stewardship, to honor outgoing Board Members

| | Meet Our New UCC Minister Emeritus
|
| In 1981, Leddy and Randy Schmelig, who had been serving at Unity Christ Church in St. Petersburg (now called Unity Church of St. Petersburg) were elected by a large majority of our voting membership to lead the ministry here.
Subsequently, Randy founded Unity Church of Palm Harbor and then was called to lead the ministry at First Unity Church of St. Louis, where he served for twenty-one years. Randy and his dear wife, Faye, retired in Palm Harbor, where she passed peacefully last spring
Delighted that Randy has been attending UCC whenever possible, Leddy proposed to our Ministry Team and Board of Directors (who expressed unanimous and enthusiastic approval) that Randy be invited to accept the title of Minister Emeritus at UCC.
The Reverend Randy graciously accepted and will be installed in our Sunday service on Sunday, February 23, the day of our Annual Meeting.
Welcome Home, Reverend Randy! |

Dr. Garland Landrith is a cutting-edge quantum field psychologist and energy healer, whose research was cited in the highly-acclaimed film, "What the Bleep Do You Know?,” which combines quantum field technology with tapping on acupuncture points to teach people how to create the life of their dreams.
Dr. Landrith was among the first to scientifically document that "what we think inside, can have a profound influence on the outer world.". In his pioneering peer-reviewed published research studies in 1981, 1982 and 1988, it was found that the inner thoughts of groups of individuals can actually improve the quality of life in the cities they live-by lowering crimes, auto accidents and suicides. In short, we can create miracles in our outer worlds with our own minds.
He been featured on numerous radio shows, including: "Coast to Coast AM,” with Art Bell, "Unity FM,” with Mindy Audlin, X Zone Radio and TV with Rob McConnell. His quantum tapping techniques have been featured on programs such as ABC’s, "The View,” and also on the Learning Channel’s, "I Can Make You Thin”. To date, he has taught over 14,000 people how to manifest the life of their dreams through his workshops and seminars across the country, which has led him to his latest break-through DVD, "Tap Into Bliss”

| | New Class Series: Lessons in Truth
|
| Begins Tue, Feb 25
7:00 PM
Café
Want to learn more about Unity? This is the class for that!
Join Associate Minister, Judy Tafelski, for a new class series, Lessons in Truth, based on the same title of the book by Dr. H. Emilie Cady. Lessons in Truth and the Bible are Unity’s two primary textbooks.
Unity Co-founders Charles and Myrtle Fillmore published the original series of Lessons in Truth by Dr. H. Emilie Cady in Modern Thought, the origin of Unity magazine.
Renowned poet Maya Angelou, who received the first honorary doctorate presented by Unity Institute, said Lessons in Truth changed her life. Dr. Angelou was introduced to Unity while studying with a voice teacher. They met weekly to read from Lessons in Truth.
She said: “I read from a book called Lessons in Truth…’God loves me’.” Her teacher asked her to read that same line three times; on the fourth read, she read “with ferocity-forceful: God. Loves. Me.” Dr. Angelou goes on: “And, at that moment, I knew it. I knew it! I thought, ‘God? That which made bees and mountains and water? That? Loves me? Maya Angelou? Well then, there’s nothing I can’t do. I can do anything good…fifty years later, I could weep with joy at the knowledge that I am loved by Love itself.”
All Are Welcome! All UCC classes are offered on a free will love offering basis.

| | | A Keepsake Bible for Youth Ministry Students!
As soon as we have at least three school age Unity students who have attended Youth Ministry classes here at least ten times during twelve months, their teachers here will be happy to plan with their parent(s) a Sunday in which to plan to include a short ceremony during the beginning of our Sunday Worship service to honor these excellent and dedicated students with a brand new, personal keepsake New American Bible, as a lovegift from Unity Church of Clearwater, inscribed with their names and the date of the award, for their lifelong use and remembrance.
Please see our Youth Ministry Coordinator and Certified Truth Teacher, Cynthia Mackey for more information. |

Diary of Anne Frank:
I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.
How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.
Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.
“Interpretation of I. Corinthians from the Heart of a Child”
written for a child to read at a wedding ceremony by Leddy Hammock, Minister, Unity Church of Clearwater
I might speak like an angel, or talk like a poet,
but words are just a ringing bell, if I don’t feel love.
If you have a secret, who cares if I know it,
or the future I could tell, if I don’t feel love?
If we give away everything that we own – even give ourselves away –
none of this matters if we are alone, so hear what I’ve come to say:
Love’s never tired of waiting. Love is always kind.
Love is not jealous or full of itself, and it fills a happy mind.
Love is not selfish or angry. Love forgets mistakes.
Love never blames, doesn’t call names, and peace is what it makes.
Love teaches our hearts to sing.
Love can face anything, finds good in everything. Love never ends.
Love is your gift to bring! Just feel it happening!
Thank you for listening. Bless you, my Friends.
“So now we have faith, hope, and love -- all these three. And the greatest of these is love." |

| | | “Jesus entered into the silence; prayed and blessed the substance at hand. If we would multiply and increase the power, substance, and life in us and at our command, we must get very still and realize that our resource is Spirit, that it is God, and that it is here in all its fullness. We must make contact with it in faith. Then we shall find it welling up within us. Some of you have no doubt had that experience. But if you just let it ooze away without understanding it, you get no benefit. Here is the key to this life and substance you feel when you sit in the silence. You must begin to speak these words with power and authority.”
(Charles Fillmore Cofounder of the Unity Movement in Prosperity [1936] -- Lesson Three: Faith in the Invisible Substance, the Key to Demonstration). |
| Your Weekly Prosperity Affirmation:
“I REALIZE THAT MY RESOURCE IS SPIRIT, AND THAT IT IS HERE IN ALL ITS FULNESS. I MAKE CONTACT WITH IT IN FAITH, SO I FIND IT WELLING UP WITHIN ME AND POURING FORTH INTO MY WORLD.”
THANK YOU, GOD! |
