A beautiful mid-week service. There will be a talk, meditation, and reflection.

Meeting our Shadow with Curiosity and Care. We continue our November focus on the ‘Shadow,’ led by Beth Welton-Miller. Together, we’ll explore the many faces of our shadow—both light and dark—and discover how these qualities shape the way we move through the world.

Member Appreciation

This week we are giving a big round of applause to Jeremy Lachman. Jeremy has been part of our Unity family for just over a year now and is helping as much as he can between working his three jobs. Jeremy has a huge heart and a contagious smile. He is always offering to help, or just steps up when he sees a need. He recently joined the Financial Stewardship Team and will be spearheading the Caroling-gram fundraiser. He also loves to bake and dreams of opening his own pie shop one day. His donation of “a pie a month for a year” to our recent auction fundraiser was one of the most bid on items! Jeremy, we appreciate you are so glad you are part of our Unity family.
