Sunday, August 4 - Friendship Sunday, "Who's in your boat"? 

The importance of worship is crucial to a healthy relationship with God, a relationship we would very much like to encourage and help foster. The value of such a connection can seem diminished these days, but as the Bible says, "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." (John 4:24).  This Sunday is Friendship Sunday.  We encourage you to reach out to family and friends to invite them to church.  Rev. Temple Hayes will be giving the Sunday message titled "Who's in your boat"? We look forward to seeing you on Sunday and bring a guest!  If you missed last week's message, click here to see what's been happening! Blessings....

Peter Calhoun

First Unity of St. Petersburg honors the life of Peter Calhoun who made his transition unexpectedly on July 21, 2013.  

 

Peter Calhoun was a former Episcopal priest who followed the path of modern shamanism for nearly four decades. He taught an accredited course in shamanism at Boulder School of Psychology and in a number of community colleges and was currently traveling throughout the United States for book signings, lectures, and workshops on the subjects of shamanism, healing, and personal empowerment. 


Nature is our greatest teacher
by Rev. Temple Hayes from "How to Speak Unity"
Alan Watts, a British philosopher, stated that we are not born onto the Earth, we are born out of the Earth.  Therefore, nature is not separate and apart from us, it is part of our connectedness with life.  We cannot exist as physical beings without the harmony and respect of and for nature.  

Unity co-founders Charles and Myrtle Fillmore believed strongly in the elements of nature and how we are affected spiritually by being in the presence of God through nature.  Both of them dedicated the majority of their lives to being vegetarians, though they were clear it was their own personal choices and a Unity creed or expectation.

Unity Village rests on several hundred acres filled with full and lush gardens and ample wildlife.  We cannot love God without being connected to all of God's creations.  Nature is not only who we are, it teaches us who we are becoming when we listen with respect and admiration.

You are invited.....

Sacared Geometry and How it Affects Your Life
facilitated by Dr. Binet Stiles, PhD
Sacred Geometry

Monday, August 12 | 7-9pm

Sanctuary | Love Offering

 

Did you know that in the very center of a sesame seed is a cube? Is it not totally cool that the shape of the human heart is the same spiral shape as the Milky Way Galaxy, and that they both follow the spiral ratio of Phi? It is truly amazing how ALL living things follow sacred geometric designs. Dr. Binet will introduce you to the fascinating spiritual core of sacred geometry in a very easy to understand presentation.  At First Unity, we all yearn for an intimate connection to our Higher Self and a grasp of the phenomena in sacred geometry will take you there! 
 
Dr. Binet has a PhD in Comparative Literature and teaches at Eckerd College. She is also a licensed massage therapist and a Reiki Master, who loves to bring her studies together into an intuitive approach at understanding the sacred shapes that pervade our lives. You'll never look at a circle or square the same way again!
