Spiritual Economics

The Money Enigma and The Wonder of Giving

"You are never further than one idea away
from all the wealth in the Universe.
"
Eric Butterworth

Really? One idea away from ALL the wealth in the Universe? In this fifth week of our six week series based on Spiritual Economics by Eric Butterworth we will delve into "The Money Enigma" and "The Wonder of Giving".

Not the most popular of topics in conversation I am absolutely certain. Arriving at the right attitude about money, healing our relationship with money, and grasping the idea that wealth is not money, are a few of the "taboo" concepts that we will lean into this week.

And what about YOUR money? How do you "Handle" your money?  Is it just about acquisition? How do you express giving? How do you express gratitude?  Does giving refer to just money? Is giving the effective remedy to lack?

True prosperity, as laid out by Eric Butterworth, gives us the opportunity to grow.  I look forward to this ongoing journey with you.
            
Additional copies of Spiritual Economics are available
in thSpiritual Economicse Bookstore. Be sure to pick up your copy!

Happy Mother's Day!

MOTHER'S DAY IS SUNDAY!

Celebrate mothers around the world by honoring the women in your life with a beautiful unique item from Exotic World Gifts. 

Your generosity gives The Unity Center the ability to support micro-finance programs that provide loans to help greater numbers of women build sustainable futures.

"When you buy a gift for the mother in your life, you are buying gifts for women all over the world." 
- Liz Allen

THE ENERGY OF MOM

Life is precious and full of wonder. In the Youth and Family Ministry, Mother's Day is the time we express our gratitude
to those who nurture and care for us and remind us of how precious and full of wonder we are.

These people come in all shapes, sizes and genders. So on Mother's Day we honor ALL of the loving people in our lives who nurture us and teach us to care for ourselves, our communities and our planet. This is the energy of MOM and what we will celebrate this Sunday.

Parents, your children are welcome to join us for a special day of song and activities.

Please plan on arriving at services early for the opening song performed by our Youth Choir. All of the children are invited to watch this performance.



TRAVEL WITH A PURPOSE 
GUATEMALA

Thanks to YOUR generosity, we have 24 laptops to provide to school children in Guatemala.


The Unity Center San Diego
Blog

For those of us who are not traveling to Guatemala, The Unity Center has created a BLOG so we can all "participate"  with Wendy and the group in their daily travels. 

What is a BLOG you might ask?


Blog is a short term for a "web log", a website that is updated regularly with photos, videos and news of interest to its readers. Often readers are able to comment and submit questions as part of a two-way conversation over the internet.

Through our Unity Center blog, you will be able to "see, hear and experience" many of the sights and sounds of Guatemala.

Please feel free to add your comments and questions. Many members of the group will be "blogging" daily, so check in often to see what's happening!


Look for the link to the blog on the Home Page of The Unity Center's website beginning May 17.


SAVE THE DATE!
 Home From Guatemala

Monday, June 14, 7:00 pm
Wendy and her fellow travelers will share their first-hand experiences with us all on Monday night, June 14th at 7:00pm.

Be there to view pictures and videotape of the touching and memorable moments of joy as they shared sacred service with the people of Guatemala during the FIRST Travel With A Purpose™ international adventure.


Be among the first to see the many colorful Guatemalan arts and crafts they will be bringing back from their trip. A special display will be in the lobby that night to whet your appetites in advance of their availability through Exotic World Gifts.
