Note from Chris

A rite of passage is an ancient model for understanding and coping with change in life. It involves three phases: endings, the void and new beginnings. All change begins with an end, which is often painful. Knowing that change can ultimately result in a better life, we can learn to honor our pain without allowing it to overcome us.
 
The void is often a very unsettling time. Our familiar world may have been shattered, and the new world isn't yet in place. It provokes a feeling of emptiness and a sense of wandering in the wilderness. This is a time to stay centered in prayer, knowing the God is in the midst of your change and that it is here to bless you.
 
The rite of passage ends with a new beginning. We discover a new and hopeful definition of ourselves and our life. Here is the reward of our journey. Because of the ending and our walk through the void, our life is now a more fulfilling experience.
 
This week, take a look at your life and consider where you may be in your own rites of passage. They are taking place in different ways at different times...all the time. That's because life is change. By understanding and appreciating where you are in the cycle, you can honor your changes and anticipate the ultimate improvement they make in your life experience.

UNEXPECTED INCOME

Unexpected Income Program Kicks Off!

A Note from our Senior Minister - Rev. Chris Jackson

Summer is a time for fun, and I want to invite you to join your spiritual family in a really fun program that will expand your awareness of God as your source.  It's the annual Unity on the Bay Unexpected Income Program for 2010, and it runs through the months of June, July and August. It's easy. By registering for the program, you commit to joining us in using the Unexpected Income Affirmation and Prayer daily. We'll join you in praying for unexpected income to manifest in your life. When it does, you commit to tithing ten percent to your spiritual community - Unity on the Bay. Together, we'll watch as you --the congregation of our ministry - expand your prosperity consciousness while blessing Unity on the Bay at the same time. Join us...you've nothing to lose and everything to gain as together we prove the unending goodness of God!
 
In spiritual unity and love, 
Chris
