This Sunday @ UCC:
Your Own Spirit - Leddy Hammock
|
|
from lyrics to “The Part of Me that Is You” by Richard Mekdeci and Sue Riley –
“When the world tells me I’m less than whole, I hear these words, spoken from my soul:
‘A child of Mine does not inherit disease,’ and I remember what my heart already knows.”
“The part of me that is You knows only health and wholeness, the part of me that is You, knows only love and joy.
The part of me that is You, is divine and ageless like a compass pointing to a north that’s true.”
“You are the Source of who I am. I am a child of Light.” “I bless the part of me that is You.” |

| | | | | Your Children Will Feel SO Welcome in our Youth Ministry!
|
|  |
Although we are honored that our young Truth students like to come to Sunday service with you, here are a few love-notes we hope you'll take to heart and know that they would be SO welcome in our Youth Ministry! -- Pretty please?
1. If, instead of bringing your own children to experience our Youth Ministry, you let them come into the Sanctuary with you, then other children won't find classmates there in our YM and new students won't feel as interested in staying to learn and socialize unless they are greeted by friends. We have hired wonderful professional nursery attendants to assist every Sunday, and they'd love to meet your little ones! Within the first five minutes, usually even first-time guests are delighted they came to Unity YM nursery or pre-K!
2. The class time lessons shared by our loving volunteer teachers are especially prepared for our elementary and teen age groups, so these learning experiences tend to be much more fun and meaningful to our young Truth students than the adult service format. We promise the school age students won't be bored! And these Unity lessons are empowering in every aspect of their lives!
3. Youngsters are adorable, but we don't expect them to sit still as statues. Yet, many adults in our spiritual family are going through "interesting times," so they really like to focus on the worship service, which includes quiet times and thoughtful messages. Remember that this worship time is for parents, too, and you'll probably enjoy this worship time in our Sanctuary as much as your little ones will enjoy their time in our Youth Wing! Let's help one another in our quest and help our YM -- and our Church -- grow at the same time!
Volunteer classroom aides are welcome, so if your little one doesn't want to leave your side, please stay with them in the YM class until they feel at home. Then just ask for a complimentary CD or DVD of our worship service at the Bookstore -- your choice!
A growing Youth Ministry is a strong sign of a thriving Church!
Come, grow with us! |

| | | A “CROWN” OF THORNS TRANSFORMED INTO A CROWN OF LOVE
“Kahlil Gibran might have been describing these two important phases of love [release and forgiveness] when he wrote: ‘Speak to us of love . . . . Even as he [love] is for your growth so is he for your pruning . . . think not you can direct the course of love, for love if it finds you worthy, directs your course.’ You have heard it said that love is a ‘many-splintered’ thing. When you are willing to release and forgive, the splinter (or ‘thorn in the flesh’) is transformed into a splendid result, and you find that love is able to direct your course to greater good.”
(Catherine Ponder in The Prospering Power of Love [Unity School of Christianity, 1966]
Your Weekly Prosperity Affirmation:
LOVE DIRECTS MY COURSE TO GREATER GOOD.
THANK YOU, GOD!
