February 12, 2014
Greetings!
Just searching for a sign of hope
I'm following the sun
To find the one and look
up in the sky, see the billion stars above.
Cause maybe on one of them you'll spend
your further life.
From the album Voyageur by Enigma
Spirit United 2014 Theme:
The Soul's Journey to Love and Freedom
February's sub-theme: The Call: Starting the Journey
February's archetype: The Loner
"In form you are the microcosm,
but in reality you are the macrocosm."
- Rumi

 NEXT SUNDAY
SCHOOL SUNDAY
February 23, 2014
10:30am-11:30am
"Across the Threshold"
with Rev. Ron Moor
We have joined the ranks of those who are seeking. We have realized the dominant cultural paradigm no longer works, but what else is there? Here, at the start, we likely feel alone. If we allow, and are willing, our sense of aloneness can serve us. As Rumi advises: "Forget Safety, live where you fear to live." Presented with poetry, luminous images, and sacred chant.
|
LAST SUNDAY  
February 9, 2014
"The Call"
with Rev. Ron Moor
and music with
Claudia Schmidt
We have begun to wake up and have figured out we are seeking. We are realizing our call toward love and freedom. As we consciously start this journey, feeling all alone is true. Rumi reminds us to "let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you really love."

Enhanced Prayer Ministry
Your prayer requests will be held in community meditation with sacred intention everyday for one month.
An expanded and rich prayer ministry is here to enhance the power and intention of your prayer. A group of individuals will pray simultaneously every day for one month per request.
Our guidance comes from Healing Presence and Spirit United's Guiding Principles.
All who come to Spirit United are invited to use this service.
To use this enhanced prayer line, use the prayer request form and place it in the prayer box (currently a prototype) on the table next to the meditation room. Be specific with your prayer to provide specific focus. Your request will be honored for one month.
Know that y
ou will be given the option to request your prayer be published in the Spirit United's e-newsletter. The newsletter reaches hundreds of people who may also pray for your request.
This evolving service is inspired by and in memory of Marilyn Sholl, Gordy Chatterton, and Kathleen O'Donovan. These beautiful souls now live in the heavens and continue to guide us as they live in the hearts of our community.
