ANNOUNCEMENTS

Financial Reporting

We are changing the way we report finances in the newsletter. Rather than reporting on a weekly basis, we will report the previous month financials in the first newsletter of the month. Going forward, we will include our total revenues and expenditures.

Check out the Property

It’s been a little over 4 months since we moved to Unity’s Campus and it is beautiful! If you are not aware, there is a labyrinth, a meditation space, and various spaces where groups can gather on over 9 beautiful acres. If you haven’t done it already, take a walk around the property, walk the labyrinth, find a special place for prayer or meditation and check out this wonderful space!

Online Service Chat Box Volunteers Needed

CSLN is looking for a few volunteers from our online community to moderate the YouTube chat box on Sunday mornings. This is a great opportunity for our members who prefer watching our service online to get involved and help our online viewers connect. You'll be provided some tools to get you started and can volunteer for as many Sundays per month as you like. Contact Rekell at admin@cslnashville.org if you are interested.

SPIRITUAL MIND TREATMENT

 Laima Dickens, RScP

There is only one Supreme Spirit, one Divine Presence, one Living Truth. One Mind of God is all there is. This creative Genious is the only Life there is, and that Life is perfect; Ominiscient, Omnipotent, and Omnipresent.

I am a whole, complete and perfect child of God. I know that I am one with this Perfect Mind and I have already embodied the Divine Principle of Perfection in all that there is. I am an individualized expression of Spirit.

I am forever perpetuating my spiritual growth, as I am consistently renewing myself. This celestial expansion affects everything I do, say and think. My life now is forever manifesting my highest self. I continue to embody and embrace the Divine Principle in all aspects of my life, easily and effortlessly.

I am very thankful that God gives me everything that I need, now and forever. I am overjoyed with so much gratitude for knowing who I am, Oneness of Spirit. I appreciate so much that my inner voice knows the Truth. I am grateful to the teachings of Ernest Holmes for my greater awareness and understanding of Infinite Intelligence.

I happily release my Word to the Universal Law of Mind in Action, knowing that my word is the Power of God. All this Good or even greater Good has already manifested in my life. It is done. And so it is!
