Wayfarers Unity Chapel

Newsletter for Dec 12-19, 2022

WE REACHED OUR GOAL !!

for

RoseMary's Chapel

Thank You to EVERYONE who helped us not only meet, but exceed our goal of $7500 for renovations to RoseMary's Chapel. We closed the fundraiser with $7624.51 towards the project. We look forward to new activities in this space.

CALENDAR AT A GLANCE

12/16 - Yoga and Live Music - 6-7:30 PM @ Clayton Yoga

Come and celebrate the winter solstice season with yoga and live music. Move to the warm, living, rich tones of the cello as we move through a flow of tucking into the darkness and pulling into the light. Then pause in meditation for an exquisite singing bowl sound bath and let the purity of these vibrations release any emotional and/or mental tensions you might be holding on to as the New Year approaches and we begin afresh. This session at Clayton Yoga is led by Lisa Ezzard with music by Marie Dunkle. RESERVATIONS REQUIRED. To enroll in the class, simply click HERE and scroll down to "Yoga Flow and Live Music & Sound Bowls with Marie."


12/18 - CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION SERVICE - 10 AM

December 18th at 10 AM we will present a program of music and verse for the Holidays. This is a unique service in which many Wayfarers share songs and readings to put us all in the Christmas spirit.


12/21 - REIKI - 4 PM

The next Reiki session is offered Wednesday, 12/21, from 4-6 PM at the chapel. If you or a friend is seeking greater peace or better health, please join us Wednesday for this gentle, healing opportunity.


12/25 - CHRISTMAS DAY - 10 AM

We know that many will be spending Christmas Day with family so rather than a Christmas Morning Service, the Chapel will be open to one and all as an opportunity for quiet reflection and meditation from 10-11 AM. A Chapel leader will be on-site to open and close the building.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

This past Sunday we started the morning with lots of laughter as Jen Utley managed to strategically slip key phrases from 'Twas the Night Before Christmas" into the announcements and introductions of musicians and speaker. Dana Thiele shared her thoughts on awakening and redefining self. Margie Swint and Marie Dunkle provided our music. And David Stearns donned a Christmas hat and tie (oh my!) for his sharing of the origins of Christmas and many Christmas traditions.

THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK

Christmas gift suggestions:


To your enemy, forgiveness.
To an opponent, tolerance.
To a friend, your heart.
To a customer, service.
To all, charity.
To every child, a good example.
To yourself, respect.


— Oren Arnold
