Welcome to our Unity of Columbus Newsletter.
JOY = "Just Open Yourself!"
On Sunday, Rev. Sandra Weisner reminded us that the key to living a life of joy is to Just Open Yourself. The greatest gift to give... and receive... is
you! This is a very important insight, and not just at Christmas!
In your prayer practice this week, please allow the following affirmation into your consciousness:
"I open my heart this day to the love, wisdom, and power of God, and I am filled with joy!"
As we celebrate Advent, we in Unity place our focus on a certain theme each of the four weeks leading to Christmas:
Week One: Faith
Week Two: Love
Week Three: Peace
Week Four: Joy
In this final week of Advent, I invite you to remember that you have the potential within you to be an agent of change. Take heart, be grateful for the Divine in you, and joy will shine forth. True, lasting joy - irrepressible joy - abounds in us when we open our hearts, letting go of fear and doubt, and give way to the Divine flow of Love, for as the wise author of the 58th Chapter of Isaiah wrote:
"Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily..."
Our spiritual community is one of joy; we invite you this or any Sunday to be a part of this blissful Life experience!
In the meantime, our Christmas Eve Candlelighting Service will be this Saturday, December 24, in the Myrtle Fillmore Chapel, with Rev. Sandra. We lovingly invite you to join us. Merry Christmas, dear friends!
Joyfully Yours,
Daryn L. Wells
Editor-In-Chief
" And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.'

MidWeek Renewal Service Tonight!
Meditation: 6:30 - 7:00 p.m.
Class/Discussion: 7:00 - 8:00 p.m.
Eric Butterworth Study Series:
"The Master Formula For Demonstration"
Eric Butterworth (1916-2003) was an author and Unity minister, who wrote several influential metaphysical books and articles, including Breaking the Ten Commandments and Discover the Power Within You.
His gentle voice and powerful, transformative message were an inspiration to thousands of people, including Dr. Maya Angelou, who referred to Butterworth as her "teacher."
Here, in this lecture series, he explores the idea of demonstration and truly living from a prosperity consciousness. This is your opportunity to experience the spirit, warmth, and humor of one of Unity's most prolific leaders.
We invite you to join us! If you are interested, please register either via e-mail, at UnityOnMaize@gmail.com, or in person at church Sunday. A signup sheet will be available at the Lobby Desk.

"The Twelve Powers" Trailer

More About The Film:
Charles Fillmore's spiritual classic, "The Twelve Powers of Man," comes to life in this exciting documentary directed by NY Times bestselling author and award-winning filmmaker James Twyman (pictured below).
Over thirty well-known Unity ministers and other leaders share their insights on each of the Twelve Powers, including Rev. Ed Townley, who also produced the film. The movie follows James Twyman as he travels to Syria to host a synchronized meditation, in which millions of people from around the world participated on February 1, 2016. The film is sure to be an instant classic and a great resource for churches to share Fillmore's teachings for decades to come.
This is the first of three films James Twyman is producing for Unity over the next several years. The series is entitled "A Sound Called Unity." The next documentary will be based on the Five Basic Principles of Unity. Nearly every Unity church around the world will host screenings for the films beginning the weekend of January 20th, 2017 for The Twelve Powers.
Copies of the film will be available for purchase
after the screening.
We look forward to seeing you there!
