*Important Note*

Third Sunday in Advent – Love
Sunday, December 14th at 10:30 AM • Via Zoom
This Sunday we welcome Rev. Claudia Acerra, MDiv as she leads us in celebrating the Third Sunday in Advent: Love.
In this sacred season, we pause to remember that Divine Love is not something we wait for—it is the radiant presence already alive within us. As we open our hearts, we allow this Love to flow through our thoughts, words, and actions, blessing our families, our communities, and the world.
May this Advent moment invite us to soften into compassion, to see the Christ Light in one another, and to embody the ever-present Love that binds all creation together.

Scripture:
“Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.” — Colossians 3:14

Unity Quote:
“Love is the great harmonizer and healer.” — Myrtle Fillmore

We are starting the book "Metabolical: The Lure and the Lies of Processed Food, Nutrition, and Modern Medicine" by Robert H. Lusting. The New York Times bestselling author of Fat Chance explains the eight pathologies that underlie all chronic disease, documents how processed food has impacted them to ruin our health, economy, and environment over the past 50 years, and proposes an urgent manifesto and strategy to cure both us and the planet.
Dr. Robert Lustig, a pediatric neuroendocrinologist who has long been on the cutting edge of medicine and science, challenges our current healthcare paradigm which has gone off the rails under the influence of Big Food, Big Pharma, and Big Government.You can’t solve a problem if you don’t know what the problem is. One of Lustig’s singular gifts as a communicator is his ability to “connect the dots” for the general reader, in order to unpack the scientific data and concepts behind his arguments, as he tells the “real story of food” and “the story of real food.”Metabolical weaves the interconnected strands of nutrition, health/disease, medicine, environment, and society into a completely new fabric by proving on a scientific basis a series of iconoclastic revelations, among them:

• Medicine for chronic disease treats symptoms, not the disease itself

• You can diagnose your own biochemical profile

• Chronic diseases are not "druggable," but they are "foodable"

• Processed food isn’t just toxic, it’s addictive

• The war between vegan and keto is a false war—the combatants are on the same side

• Big Food, Big Pharma, and Big Government are on the other side

Making the case that food is the only lever we have to effect biochemical change to improve our health, Lustig explains what to eat based on two novel criteria: protect the liver, and feed the gut. He insists that if we do not fix our food and change the way we eat, we will continue to court chronic disease, bankrupt healthcare, and threaten the planet. But there is hope: this book explains what’s needed to fix all three.

Message: Holding Peace in a Noisy World

Sunday, December 7th • 10:30 AM • On Zoom

Second Sunday in Advent – Peace

As we continue our Advent journey, we turn our hearts toward the sacred theme of Peace—the deep, abiding inner calm that transcends circumstance and connects us with the Presence of God.
This Sunday, Rev. Cherie Ruffo will share an uplifting message titled “Holding Peace in a Noisy World,” exploring how we can access the Christ Peace that lives within us, even and especially in times of overwhelm, uncertainty, or emotional turbulence. Together, we will reflect on how Peace is not something we achieve through perfect circumstances—rather, it is a spiritual Presence we awaken to and allow to express through us.
In the spirit of Advent, we draw inspiration from the prophecy that foretold the coming of Christ Peace into the world:

“And he shall be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace.”
— Isaiah 9:6

This timeless scripture reminds us that Peace is both a gift and a calling—a divine light born not only in Bethlehem long ago, but continually within every receptive heart.
Join us this Sunday as we light the Advent candle of Peace and explore how to become instruments of Peace in a world that needs our calm, our compassion, and our conscious presence.
We look forward to sharing this sacred time with you!
Special Music by Candida Rose.

This Sunday: Guest Speaker Rev. Kathleen Kerswig, MDiv, MS

Message: Expression of Faith

Sunday, November 30th • 10:30 AM • On Zoom
First Sunday in Advent – Hope & Faith
As we enter the sacred season of Advent, we begin with the themes of Hope and Faith—the spiritual foundations that open our hearts to the birth of new light.
This Sunday we warmly welcome Rev. Kathleen Kerswig, MDiv, MS, who will share an inspiring message titled “Expression of Faith.” Rev. Kathleen brings a rich depth of spiritual insight, blending scholarship with heartfelt storytelling. Her message will invite us to explore how faith moves within us, through us, and as us—especially during seasons of uncertainty and transformation.
To guide our hearts as we prepare for Advent, we reflect on Mary's courage and unwavering faith in the Christmas story:

“And Mary said, ‘Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.’”
— Luke 1:38

Mary’s profound “yes” is a timeless reminder that faith is not the absence of uncertainty, but the courageous willingness to trust the unfolding of Divine Love.
Join us for a meaningful and hope-filled service as we begin Advent together!

Gratitude isn’t just a feeling — it’s a spiritual power that transforms how we see, respond, and show up in the world. This Sunday, Rev. Cherie Ruffo leads us into the heart of The Alchemy of Gratitude, exploring how appreciation shifts our consciousness, heals the heart, and invites divine order into our lives.

Together we’ll discover how gratitude becomes a sacred tool of spiritual alchemy — turning everyday moments into revelations of grace. Join us for an uplifting morning of reflection, light, and a beautiful candle ritual honoring our blessings. Please bring a list of 5 things you are grateful for.

“Gratitude turns what we have into enough, and more. It transforms denial into acceptance, chaos into order, and confusion into clarity.” — Melody Beattie

We are starting the book "Metabolical: The Lure and the Lies of Processed Food, Nutrition, and Modern Medicine" by Robert H. Lusting. The New York Times bestselling author of Fat Chance explains the eight pathologies that underlie all chronic disease, documents how processed food has impacted them to ruin our health, economy, and environment over the past 50 years, and proposes an urgent manifesto and strategy to cure both us and the planet.
Dr. Robert Lustig, a pediatric neuroendocrinologist who has long been on the cutting edge of medicine and science, challenges our current healthcare paradigm which has gone off the rails under the influence of Big Food, Big Pharma, and Big Government.You can’t solve a problem if you don’t know what the problem is. One of Lustig’s singular gifts as a communicator is his ability to “connect the dots” for the general reader, in order to unpack the scientific data and concepts behind his arguments, as he tells the “real story of food” and “the story of real food.”Metabolical weaves the interconnected strands of nutrition, health/disease, medicine, environment, and society into a completely new fabric by proving on a scientific basis a series of iconoclastic revelations, among them:

• Medicine for chronic disease treats symptoms, not the disease itself

• You can diagnose your own biochemical profile

• Chronic diseases are not "druggable," but they are "foodable"

• Processed food isn’t just toxic, it’s addictive

• The war between vegan and keto is a false war—the combatants are on the same side

• Big Food, Big Pharma, and Big Government are on the other side

Making the case that food is the only lever we have to effect biochemical change to improve our health, Lustig explains what to eat based on two novel criteria: protect the liver, and feed the gut. He insists that if we do not fix our food and change the way we eat, we will continue to court chronic disease, bankrupt healthcare, and threaten the planet. But there is hope: this book explains what’s needed to fix all three.

This Sunday, we continue our anniversary celebration with a message about the sacred gift of being human.

Through compassion, courage, and empathy, we remember that our humanity is not separate from our divinity — it is the very way Spirit expresses through us.

Rev. Cherie will open with a reading from I Am Human: A Book of Empathy by Susan Verde and explore how wisdom from many traditions — from Rumi’s poetry to the prayers of the world’s faiths — reveals one radiant truth:

We are divine beings learning to love through our humanity.

Join us as we honor sixteen years of CommUnity, connection, and the Light we share with the world.

Monday Night Book Club - 6:30PM, are reading Internationally renowned motivational teacher and popular theologian Caroline Myss has created a transcendent work of unique insight and revelation in Entering the Castle. A highly original inner path to self-knowledge, the Castle is also the road to spiritual knowledge of God and your own soul. In fact the soul is your spiritual castle and doing interior soul work helps you find your path in the world.
Teresa of Ávila's vision of the soul as a beautiful crystal castle with many mansions, and many rooms within those mansions, is the template for this modern spiritual journey on which you meet different aspects of your self and spirit and prepare for the ultimate encounter with God and your own divinity. Seven stages of intense practices and methods of spiritual inquiry develop your personal powers of prayer, contemplation, and intuition, which in turn reinforce your interior castle and build a soul of strength and stamina.With stories and inspiration from mystics of all traditions, Entering the Castle is a comprehensive guide for the journey of your life -- a journey into the center of your soul. There, peace, God, and a fearless joy wait for you to discover them...and claim them for your own.

Happy World Indigenous Peoples Day weekend!

We invite you to join us this Sunday, October 12th at 10:30 AM, as Joseph Antao, LUT, shares an inspiring message titled:

Standing on the Truth that We Know and Letting Go of the False

Joe will invite us to release limiting beliefs and align with the divine wisdom that never wavers. Drawing from Proverbs 12:17, he reminds us that when we speak truth and live from it, light shines through every circumstance.

“Whoever speaks the truth gives honest evidence,
but a false witness speaks deceitfully.” — Proverbs 12:17

Please join us this Sunday, October 2nd at 10:30 AM as Rev. Cherie Ruffo continues our Fall Prosperity Series with:

“The Way to Wealth” – Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin was a printer, scientist, inventor, diplomat, philosopher, and statesman—and yes, he even started the first lending library and the first fire department in America! Somehow, between discovering electricity and charming the French, he also became one of history’s wisest voices on money and prosperity.

“Well done is better than well said.”
— Poor Richard’s Almanack, 1737

🎶 Special Music by Candida Rose

✨ Monthly Unity Healing Service

The monthly healing service, led by Rev. Linda Menard, Interfaith Minister, will be held this Sunday immediately following the service.
