Information for Our Beloved Community on
COVID-19
Dear Unity of Arlington Family,
As you know, we are experiencing a unique time in our history with the spread of COVID-19. We are committed to being a part of the solution. For that reason, we are suspending all in-person gatherings for
at least two weeks. This is
effective immediately and includes worship services and all other activities.
I trust you understand this decision is grounded in Principle and is in the best interest and highest Good for all concerned to stay healthy and happy.
Because this scenario is fluid with a lot of moving parts, we are constantly assessing the ways in which we operate our campus and will communicate as quickly as possible any additional changes.
While we cannot be together in-person, I will livestream via Facebook Live from home on Sundays at 11am CT. If you are not currently following us on Facebook, now is the perfect time to do so. It will be very easy to watch. From any device, simply go to our Facebook page (
facebook.com/unityofarlington) and click on the livestream post as soon as it pops up.
Also, I encourage you to please share this information with your family and friends--anyone you feel would benefit from our message of hope, peace, love and joy--invite them to join the livestream. During this rare season of change, when anxiety appears to run high, many are searching for sound spiritual teachings.
As I often say, "You are the 'You' in Unity." Now is the time to raise your spiritual practice to a new height so that you are responding from a place of faith, strength, and wisdom.
In the words of Unity Co-founder, Myrtle Fillmore:
"We rejoice and remember that we have the God-power to change conditions, the God-love to express Christlikeness, and we work lovingly and diligently with whatever we find in ourselves or our environment that falls short. Keeping the attention centered in the Christ Mind, we are able to see beyond appearances to the impulses of the soul, which is always urging us in our efforts to make use of what God has given... Let us remember what Jesus Christ said, 'With God all things are possible.'"
And so it is. Amen.
See you on the livestream.
Love and Blessings,
Rev. Anne Tabor
Senior Minister

Reverend Anne Tabor, M.Div., is available by appointment for spiritual counseling sessions at Unity of Arlington in a safe and supportive environment. As an ordained Unity minister, Rev. Anne, offers spiritual counseling to individuals seeking
a deeper understanding of themselves and their divine power within to solve life's challenges. Spiritual counseling can help if there is a need for inspiration, crisis support, or healing in any area of your life. Prayer and meditation are an integral part of Unity's spiritual principles, and an essential practice in realizing the answers we seek. We believe in the transformative power of affirmative prayer. You are a unique expression of God. Spiritual counseling will remind you of that!
Spiritual counseling is offered on a love offering basis. While no specific fee is expected or suggested, we do invite each person to leave a love offering. For more details, please call the church office 817-467-5151.

UNITY'S FIVE BASIC PRINCIPLES
There is only one Presence and one Power in the Universe and in my life,
God the Good.
Human beings have a spark of divinity within them, the Christ spirit within.
Their essence is of God, and therefore they are also inherently good.
Human beings create their experiences by the activity of their thinking.
Everything in the manifest realm has its beginning in thought.
Prayer is creative thinking that heightens the connection with God Mind and therefore brings forth wisdom, healing, prosperity, and everything good.
Knowing and understanding the laws of life, also called Truth, are not enough.
A person must live the truth he or she knows.
|
|
CORE VALUES
Spirit-Led:
Centered in the awareness of God's presence, we turn within for divine guidance in
all we do.
Love:
Love is our True Nature. We express the harmonizing power of love to
see good everywhere and in everybody. Love binds together the whole
human family.
Diversity:
We believe that all people are created with sacred worth. In a spirit of Unity,
we embrace each person as an expression of God grounded in truth and love.
Connection:
We live, love, and laugh from our Oneness with God. We honor our inter-connectedness with each other, with all life, and the earth.
Abundance:
God is our Infinite Source of Good. We gratefully demonstrate prosperity in all areas of our lives. We wisely use our wealth of resources to serve our spiritual community and the world.
Service:
We cultivate enlightened leadership by practicing the teachings of Jesus the Christ through sacred service. It is a blessing to serve locally and globally.
Integrity:
We consciously choose to practice living our Core Values and Unity Principles rather than simply professing them. We choose to communicate from the heart with authenticity and deliver on our commitments with reliability.
