Coloring for Relaxation & Meditation
Thursday, June 29th, 2017
Garden Lane Center
Coloring isn't just for kids! One of the reasons adult coloring books have become so popular is because they are a major stress-buster and tension reliever. Join Rev. Anne for a night of coloring for relaxation and meditation in a soothing and comfortable environment. We encourage you to bring your own coloring book and markers, but there will also be some sheets and supplies available. Sign up sheet in foyer. Love offering.
While supplies last, you'll receive a Color Your Zen Daily Word Coloring Book Sampler, when you attend one of our coloring classes.

Prayer Box 2.0
The Prayer Chaplains are looking for an Angel to create a new Prayer Box for the Sanctuary.
Over the past years our Prayer Box has become more and more active and it is showing the wear from prayerful use. It has had a couple of emergency surgeries but has surely reached the time for its retirement.
The Chaplains are looking for:
- Something unique that reflects our Community
- Not much larger than the current Prayer Box; portable
- A slot for prayer requests rather than having to open the box
- A drawer for past prayer requests (the Chaplains keep 4-5 weeks of prayer requests)
- A drawer for the meager supplies; ink pens, prayer request slips, envelopes
If you have a tingling saying that this might be yours to do, please contact Naora ([email protected] ) or Becky ([email protected] ) for more information.
Rev. Anne will have the final say on the design.

Reverend Anne Tabor, M.Div., is available by appointment for spiritual counseling sessions at Unity of Arlington in a safe and supportive environment. As an ordained Unity minister, Rev. Anne, offers spiritual counseling to individuals seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their divine power within to solve life's challenges. Spiritual counseling can help if there is a need for inspiration, crisis support, or healing in any area of your life. Prayer and meditation are an integral part of Unity's spiritual principles, and an essential practice in realizing the answers we seek. We believe in the transformative power of affirmative prayer. You are a unique expression of God. Spiritual counseling will remind you of that!
Spiritual counseling is offered on a love offering basis. While no specific fee is expected or suggested, we do invite each person to leave a love offering. For more details, please call the church office 817/467-5151.

UNITY'S FIVE BASIC PRINCIPLES
There is only one Presence and one Power in the Universe and in my life, God the Good.
Human beings have a spark of divinity within them, the Christ spirit within. Their essence is of God, and therefore they are also inherently good.
Human beings create their experiences by the activity of their thinking. Everything in the manifest realm has its beginning in thought.
Prayer is creative thinking that heightens the connection with God Mind and therefore brings forth wisdom, healing, prosperity, and everything good.
Knowing and understanding the laws of life, also called Truth, are not enough. A person must live the truth he or she knows.
|
CORE VALUES
As expressions of Spirit, we embrace and reflect the Divine in all. Love is the nature of who we are.
We live from a conscious connection with Spirit. We affirm there is only one presence and one power, and we are expressions of it.
We lovingly embrace all people. We are One Loving Spirit.
We actively meet the needs of our community. We are expressions of Christ Consciousness.
INTEGRITY:
We consciously choose to practice transparency and authenticity in living our Core Values and Unity Principles. Spiritual integrity is seeking true alignment with our highest intentions, core values, and principles.
