"What's Next? The View Ahead for 2017"
   
What have you wanted to create in 2017? How might you move forward into the year's second half with even more imagination and enthusiasm? What do you want now? Next? Ongoing? And what's the best way for us to clarify what we want? This Sunday, Rev. Bronte will lead us in ways to think "bigger & bolder."
    We will have "Vision for 2016: 2nd Half" blank letters available for you to fill out, seal in an envelope, self-address, and leave with Unity Athens. We hold and then mail them back to you in late December. (Pssst.... there may even be some "white stones" like the ones given out at New Years!) 
    Cynthia Hart will bless us with her music. "She  was lead singer and founding
member of "Dreamer," one of the top acts 
from the Atlanta area during the explosion of southern rock scene in the 1980s and early '90s. After over a decade of being completely immersed in the music business, she ended her career and began soul searching, shifting her energy towards a profound exploration into spiritual and personal growth. Cynthia's life experience is beautifully woven into her music, creating blissful musical textures and enlightening messages to dance within our awareness. Her album,  I Remember, lends a divine invitation into the magic of remembering through a melodic journey into past lives, dreams of ancient civilizations and the power of wakening to our soul's purpose." Come on out this Sunday to meet her!  Check out her website.
       We hope you will join us in body or in spirit as we celebrate 2017's half-way mark at Unity Athens!
