The Master Keys of Healing

The Master Keys of Healing

Starts Friday, September 11

Health and well-being are not mysterious forces outside of us. We have the power within to generate wellness, health, and harmony in every aspect of our lives. It is our natural state of being to live in great vitality and fullness of life, experiencing deep inner peace as Divine Creator intends each of us to live. We choose this intention for ourselves, aligning with Divine Source which we are.
 
All are welcome to explore grounded, practical, universal principles in the book The Master Keys of Healing, authored by Alan Cohen, a holistic life coach and teacher of A Course in Miracles. 
 
The group will be facilitated by Deb Walker on Fridays beginning September 11th, from  1:00-2:30 for approximately 12 weeks. Prayer and meditation will be offered in the group. All are welcome to join at any time!
 
The book is available for purchase at your favorite bookseller.

Exciting News from Priscilla: Children’s Program begins September 13!

Exciting News from Priscilla: Children’s Program begins September 13!

At Unity, we’ll be creating a warm, welcoming space where children can learn, connect, have fun, and explore meaningful ideas that they can carry with them into their everyday lives. Some of the themes we’ll be exploring include: peace, kindness, mindfulness and connection.

Throughout the fall, we’ll be incorporating stories, art, movement, mindfulness activities, group discussions, games, and hands-on projects so that the children can learn these ideas in ways that are engaging and age-appropriate.

We Need Your Help!

A successful children’s program is truly a community effort, and we'd love to have parents involved. We need volunteers to help with the children, activities, setup, cleanup, and special projects throughout the year. Please sign up on the Connect and Serve table to say “Yes” to the experience.

Thank you for supporting the Children’s Program and for being part of our Unity community. Priscilla is looking forward to seeing everyone on September 13!

Calling all middle and high school parents!
