we each perceive & experience.

Congregational Work Day

Saturday, May 21

8:00 a.m. to TOO-HOT p.m.

Congregational Work Day

 

This day is something between a raising ("a social event in which members of a community assist in the building of ...") and a bee ("a gathering of people for a specific purpose").

 

We'll be assisting in the building and expanding of our relationships with each other as we gather together for the purpose of giving our church site a good spring cleaning inside and out.

 

people with hands together 

 

Inside, we'll do all-around deep cleaning, minor repairs and general sprucing.  Outside, we'll weed and chop and clear and maybe even plant.

 

Bring gloves, tools (home and garden), cleaning supplies, and whatever else might seem useful.  

 

We'll brown-bag it for food, and water, sodas, coffee and tea will be provided.

 

Please join us.  It's one of those events that's great fun for all ages. 

 

Shannon Jacobs, our Board Treasurer, is coordinator, so please get in touch with him for further details:  ripley_77023@yahoo.com 

 

 

Thoughts ...

Season for Nonviolence

The pessimist
complains about the wind.
The optimist
expects it to change.
The leader
adjusts the sails.


~ John Maxwell
Practice
As I go through my day today, I notice when, under what conditions, and with whom I tend to adopt an attitude of pessimism, optimism, or leadership.

  




Silent Unity Prayer Service

Along with Unity churches and centers around the globe, we hold a 30-minute Silent Unity Prayer Service each week, using that month's script from Unity Village.    

Around the circle we participate in repetitions of  the Silence, affirmation, words for thought, the Silence - as in the following sampling of May's service.     

In the sanctuary of my heart, I feel the peace and love of God.           Pure love is everywhere present and at the very center of my being.  As the light of Spirit moves in and through me, it infuses every area of my being with vitality, wisdom, strength and love.  I share this light with others through my thoughts, words and actions.  With peace in my heart, peace prevails in my world.  I embrace peace now, in the Silence ...

With Divine Spirit as my guide, I make wise choices ... etcetera     

I am vibrantly alive and healthy ... etcetera  

I am immersed in abundant life ... etcetera   

I am a peacemaker, contributing to a peaceful world ... etcetera   

We close with the Prayer for Protection.

 

We'd love to have you join us for this mid-week spiritual refresher.
