"Surf's Up!
"
Sunday, July 14, 2019
11am, Rev. Anne Tabor
It has been said, "You can't control the waves, but you can learn how to surf." Even still, this doesn't mean you won't get tossed around a bit! And what do you do in between the rise and fall of swells? Join Rev. Anne as we discover the key to understanding that we will never be able to control the waves of life, but surely we can be lifted up by them and learn how to ride them out.

"Made in the Shade
"
Sunday, July 21, 2019
11am, Rev. Anne Tabor
Spiritually speaking, we hear a lot about the symbolism behind the word "Light." We say things like... "The Light of God surrounds us," and "You are the Light of the world!" While Light is a wonderful metaphor for truth and goodness, did you know that it is equally powerful to simply bask in the shade?Join Rev. Anne for part three of her Summer Soul Series, Hello Sunshine!, as we look at the perfect spiritual growing conditions of taking a breather in the cooler areas of our lives.

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.

Our Lost and Found is not exactly legendary, but If you are missing something like a scarf or a shawl it might have been turned in for safe keeping in the Administration Office. We have a varied collection of items in the file cabinet so if there's something you've been missing it might just be that it is here, waiting to be found.

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
Spirit-Led:
Centered in the awareness of God's presence, we turn within for divine guidance in
all we do.
Love:
Love is our True Nature. We express the harmonizing power of love to
see good everywhere and in everybody. Love binds together the whole
human family.
Diversity:
We believe that all people are created with sacred worth. In a spirit of Unity,
we embrace each person as an expression of God grounded in truth and love.
Connection:
We live, love, and laugh from our Oneness with God. We honor our inter-connectedness with each other, with all life, and the earth.
Abundance:
God is our Infinite Source of Good. We gratefully demonstrate prosperity in all areas of our lives. We wisely use our wealth of resources to serve our spiritual community and the world.
Service:
We cultivate enlightened leadership by practicing the teachings of Jesus the Christ through sacred service. It is a blessing to serve locally and globally.
Integrity:
We consciously choose to practice living our Core Values and Unity Principles rather than simply professing them. We choose to communicate from the heart with authenticity and deliver on our commitments with reliability.
