 "The Turning Point"
Sunday, May 3
, 2020
11am CT, Rev. Anne Tabor
Join Rev. Anne as she concludes our talk series based on Robert Brumet's book,
Finding Yourself in Transition,
and we explore how each "crisis" can be a turning point that naturally guides us to end an old way of being and open the way to new life. This is the gift... to know that chaos gives birth to transformation IF we are willing to allow the divine plan to unfold. One of the ways to prepare for a new beginning is to let go of fear and discover your soul's deepest desires.

 "Speak Life"
Happy Mother's Day
Sunday, May 10
, 2020

Join us online this Mother's Day as we celebrate the universal idea of the Divine Feminine and the nurturing energy of Spirit. We realize this year looks different, but we still want to make this a special day by honoring motherhood of all kinds. Whether you are male or female, biological mother or not, we are all connected to the presence of unconditional love that flows through each of us. Rev. Anne's message about all expressions of motherly love will inspire you to speak life!

 Book Study - Finding Yourself in Transition
Thursdays, April 30th
and
May 7th
7pm - 9pm Zoom
Rev. Anne Tabor
Joyous and challenging, the one constant in life is change. Change is inevitable. Indeed, we are always in a place of transition in some aspect of our lives--this is especially true now as we grow through a global pandemic. The focus of our book study is how to navigate the process of change as an opportunity for transformation and spiritual awakening.
Rev. Anne will be leading this three-week book study to
follow along with her three-part Sunday Message Series based on Robert Brumet's book,
Finding Yourself in Transition: Using Life's Changes for Spiritual Awakening.
Suggested Love Offering: $15/class
You will be invited to make your Love Offering via a safe and secure way to give during each class.

Tools for Difficult Times
Spiritual Resources to Calm Anxiety
in Times of Stress, Loss, and Grief
Each of us faces times of high stress, anxiety, loss, and grief. During health crises, economic downturns, and more, we experience these stresses together.
In these times of stress, it's important to prioritize mental and spiritual health as best we can.
The Unity team has compiled a
list of resources to help you overcome fear, find moments of courage and peace, and support you in times of change.

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.

You are a unique expression of God. Spiritual counseling will remind you of that!

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.
