We Are So Grateful!
Construction Update
We look forward to signs of construction on the Church parcel of land on the west side
of this campus. This week, TZ Architecture, the church’s architecture firm, asked for the paint colors we had chosen for our new Church home, so we looked them up and shared them: Ed Marinacci and Sherri Wallace had chosen Pure White, with light gray trim. Beautiful!  We can just visualize it now!

We remain very grateful for the steadfast faith of all those whose gifts of love and substance sustain our Church during this time of transition.  We are very glad to welcome old friends and new friends on Sundays on our home campus.  Watch this space as we give thanks together that God is clearing the way for us to go forward.  

Our beautiful new Church Home is being built for us in wisdom, love, and divine timing and we are ready to receive it!

This Sunday: Leddy Hammock - Holding the High Watch
Highlights:

Inspired by lyrics to “Search the Sky” by Sloan Wainwright:

Search the sky for that star of light and love, to guide believers from near and far.

Let the light of peace and love shine in every heart.

Let there be peace around our world, peace within ourselves.

Let Truth, love, and healing shine in all our faces.
Last Sunday's Shining Words:

“Those who trust in him shall understand truth, and the faithful shall abide with him in love: because grace and mercy are his holy ones” (Wisdom 3:9).

I just stepped aside and opened up a space. Now the blessings arrive every day, since I made room for grace.

EFT - Tapping Group
Meeting on Mondays Until November

What is Emotional Freedom Tapping (EFT)
 
Your body is more powerful than you may imagine, filled with life, energy, and a compelling ability for self-healing.
 
Like acupuncture and acupressure, Tapping is a set of techniques that utilize the body’s energy meridian points. You can stimulate these meridian points by tapping on them with your fingertips, literally tapping into your body’s own energy and healing power.
 
Gather with a great group of positive and supportive folks with healing in mind!

Wednesday Evening Spiritual Treatment
Wednesdays
7:00-7:30 PM
Livestream only (UCC Facebook Page)

On the first three Wednesdays of December, our prayer services will be based on the writings of Elizabeth Sand Turner in Your Hope of Glory: “In this remarkable book, Elizabeth Sand Turner presents a metaphysical study of Jesus and His teachings of The Gospels. With emphasis on the writings of Unity co-founder, Charles Fillmore, she ties together his ideas with her own, presenting an enlightening account of the life of Jesus Christ from the time of His birth …. How are we drawn to Jesus Christ? What makes us spiritual beings?”

On the last two Wednesdays of December, our holiday prayer services will be based on the writings of Myrtle Fillmore in How to Let God Help You. These special, contemplative services, led by The Rev. Dr. Leddy Hammock with music by our dear Sue Riley will be posted on FB to be accessed throughout the whole day on both Christmas Eve Day (Dec. 24) and New Year’s Eve Day (Dec. 31).

Healing Thought # 297
Meditation of the High Watch . . . . Divine love in me is a radiant light that shines out before me, making plain my way, guiding me in the ways of wisdom, illuminating the path for others; a light that constantly lifts higher my consciousness …. As I feel Thy nearness, all darkness, all dimness of vision departs, and the glory of Thy countenance shines round about me. My soul is filled with Thy radiance, my mind is lifted above all fear and worry, my body is free from the bondage of pain. No more am I sad, no more am I lonely, no more am I anxious, for I have found perfect trust in the goodness of Thy will for me. In my consciousness of unity with Thee, O omnipresent One, the light of the star shines in my soul …illumining all the dark places. The joy of the angels' songs fills my heart with peace and good will to all; the Wise Men within bring their rich gifts with rejoicing, as I give all that I am and all that I have to the Christ of God, born anew in my consciousness…” (Frances Foulkes, Effectual Prayer).
OUR WEEKLY AFFIRMATION:
