9 am Unity Prayer Service

11:00 am Sunday Celebration Service

Greetings!

Sunday is Mother's Day and we at Unity of Louisville would like to extend a blessing and well wishes on all mothers everywhere. But, from a Unity perspective, or at least my perspective, Mother's Day is more then honoring mothers. We honor the Divine feminine within each person. We are all have both masculine and feminine energies which inform and guide our beliefs and behavior in the world. Learning to balance these energies, for me, is the one of the keys to spiritual enlightenment. Knowing we have both energies within our consciousness and learning to nurturer and balance the two create the container for a consciousness of wholeness.

Plan to attend Sunday as Gerry Boylan, our guest speaker, explores the transformative nature of claiming the truth of our whole being. Gloria Berry will provide special music and Rev Val will lead the meditation.
