DO IT ANYWAY!

 

Showing up as our best and highest self, no matter the circumstances, can often be quite challenging. 

 

How can we learn to navigate life with grace, resilience, and a deeper sense of purpose, fulfillment and appreciation? And why it matters…..

Loving Our Church Family

Photos by Bob Sleczkowski & Suzi Henry

Long time Prayer Partner Jeanette Senart speaks about her years of volunteer service with UCM and makes a strong request for members to consider joining our Board of Trustees. She will be relocating from our area, and we will greatly miss her poignant prayers, her inventive social activities, and her glowing Spirit. We love you, we thank you and we bless you, Jeanette.

Rev Robin Volker presents another outstanding meditation and service, this one titled "Finding Your Purpose." Beautifully scripted and flawlessly delivered, her message invites each of us to turn within and examine our own gifts, seeking God's guidance as we pursue our quest to identify our own special purpose in our lives.

After the service is over, good friends linger to share fellowship and discuss upcoming events, including our long awaited "Taize Connection" event on May 15. From left, Bob Lew, Jennifer Shottes, Larry Morgan and Chris Grooms.

Suzi's ""candid camera" catches Charlotte and Bob Sleczkowski holding hands, while Bob models his vintage Unity Church polo shirt. Platform Leader Rick Volker is also wearing his matching shirt today. Watch for the new generation of logo shirts to be available for purchase very soon.

So after the weekly updates, it's Bob's turn to use his "candid camera" to catch Jeanette hugging Board President Suzi Henry after Suzi presents her with a bouqet of silk roses to show our appreciation for her years of volunteer service. Jeanette plans to relocate to Virginia in the near future.
