Fear, Faith, and Intuition – Amidst 4000 Varieties of Andean Potatoes

with Kevin Kubota

After a beautiful service on Callings last week, Kevin talks about fear – and how it can sidetrack us from living in the Light of our true calling. Fear has many faces, some surprisingly benign and hidden. How do you know the difference between your gut intuition and baseless fears? Take an adventure with fear, and Kevin, through stories and experiences that can change your world and your relationship with that “F” word.

Bring a snack to share at our after service buffet 😁

Youth Programs

Little Ones –

The nursery is open for little ones up to 4 years old.

Elementary aged kids – William is our youth lead this Sunday – crafts, games, and sharing 😎

Teens –

We are looking for teens in 9th to 12th grade, to come learn about each other and Unity once a month. We had an active Y.O.U. (Youth of Unity) group before the pandemic. This will be the start of rebuilding that group. A group for 6th to 8th graders is in the planning stages. This will be a safe space for teens to have fun, be heard and supported with compassion.

Contact Sarah Hood 925-788-2504

When: Once or twice a month on Saturday evenings.

Member Appreciation

This week our shout out goes to Jillie Nishball. You may have seen her singing with Solshine or at one of our Kirtan concerts. Music brings her great joy! Jillie has been a member for many years. She regularly participates in Spirit groups, is a Sunday greeter, expresses her artistry on our chalkboard outside the sanctuary, and works for Oregon State parks as an events coordinator. We are so grateful for the beautiful energy she brings and the ways she contributes to our community. This weekend she will be having a Celebration of Life for her long time partner, David, so send her some extra love and support as she celebrates and remembers him. We’re sending you a virtual hug Jillie! Thank you for being you! 🤗💕
