SUNDAY LESSON

The Fountain of Youth

September 20 | 10 AM

Join our public service* or watch online.

Join Reverend Towles for a lesson on using perpetual forgiveness to release your daily negative judgments. Forgiving everything offers you the gift of light-heartedness and living this way is like experiencing a literal fountain of youth. Read the full Sunday Message.

* Our public service has limited seating and requires that you adhere to our prescribed safety protocols.

After the service there is an Online Fellowship Gathering conducted through Zoom. This is a weekly check in to keep us connected during this time of social isolation. To join the discussion, click the link above. We would love to know how you are doing.

Your Unity Spiritual Center is sustained by your financial gifts. If you are able, we encourage you to continue your weekly contributions. Click Ways 2 Give for a list of donation options.

Fall Faith in Action Group Study

7 Week Series

October 4 to November 15

Join a Study Group

Have you signed up for the Group Study? During these times of extended self-isolation, we all need outlets for connection and support. That is the purpose of our Fall Faith in Action Group Study. The 7-week series offers tools, understanding, and practical insights on how to cultivate resilience in times of struggle. To support your experience, you will meet in a small discussion group. There are five groups to choose from including an in-person group at the Unity Center. Each group meeting is 1.5 hours long and the information you need to participate in your sessions will be provided by your facilitator. Finally, as a reminder, be sure to buy a copy of the book RISING STRONG by Brene Brown. There are copies available at USCNI. Call Jerilyn to reserve a copy. Otherwise, you can buy one online or wherever books are sold. Just make sure you have it in hand before the group study begins in October.

Unity Environmental Team September Challenge

The Environmental Team’s September Challenge is to ditch plastic trash bags and go biodegradable. Thankfully, there are now biofriendly and affordable alternatives to conventional plastic bin liners. These sustainable alternatives make microbes your friend and feed them. In fact, they rely on the billions of microbes in the soil to breakdown the bags into compost in as little as 90-days. You can find a variety of compostable trash bags at many local supermarkets or at Unni.world. Just make sure that you choose products that are compostable.
