April 9, 2014
Greetings!
meditation-soul awakening
All we need is meditation
so don't go calling for no medication
The truth has been waiting for resurrection
so do it some justice and pay attention
The time has come to for our true self projection
so make sure you hold on, cause the ride will get bumpy and cause for some - ejection
as long as there is no self-rejection
we will all find ourselves in the right direction
for our unique soul prescription
so be strong and roar
roar your loudest roar
make them wonder what's new in the air
and then you quietly say
oh nothing my dears
just a soul awakening over here
- Tora Simpson
Spirit United 2014 Theme:
The Soul's Journey to Love and Freedom
April's sub-theme: Looking Within: Discovering Soul
April's archetype: Soul Searcher
"In form you are the microcosm,
but in reality you are the macrocosm."
- Rumi

Join us as we celebrate our community with the welcoming of new members and enter into April's theme--Discovering Soul. The service will begin with a procession of flowers and end with a pot luck. Let your soul be fed.

LAST SUNDAY'S LATE SERVICE 
April 6, 2014 
"The Energy of Forgiveness:
A Gift of Freedom"with Chris Furlong, colleague of Dr. Mark Umbreit,
and musician Gary Ten Bear
Dr. Umbreit was the original plan. Due to a family emergency was unable to come. Chris Furlong works in the Dept of Corrections as a Restorative Justice Coordinator. She introduced a video then facilitated a discussion afterwards. A community member told me, "She was great and it was a powerful film." Also, Gary Ten Bear played his flute and shared his experiences in Restorative Justice. "It really made me think of where I am in my life in regard to a deeper personal forgiveness process."

"The Mysteries of Easter"
with Rev. Ron Moor
Saturday, April 19, 2014
1:00pm-4:00pm
What is Easter, really? Why are there so many different celebrations on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox? What is the deeper meaning of the events of Holy Week? What is the resurrection, really? What does it all mean to 21st century humans striving to regain their connection with creation and creator? We will look at the earliest known "Easter type" rituals that date back at least 18,000 years, check out the later pre-Christian rites, spend some time with Jesus and Mary Magdalene, and discuss the post religious possibilities that are now emerging. With images, lecture, discussion and meditation we will explore the magic and myths of this special time of year.
After our Saturday afternoon together of questing and discussing perhaps we will be more able to appreciate and participate in our community Celebration of Easter on Sunday morning.

 A thought provoking find from Carol McCormick.
YOUR WAVES .... Did you know are like a radio, transmitting and picking up the vibrations and waves of absolutely every being on this planet and beyond!?
What are you transmitting, what are you picking up?
You have the power within to raise the vibrations, not just for yourself but for every being and the planet. Why?
Because we are ALL one, planet and beings alike. - Jeff Andrews

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 you 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.
