Lessons of the Turtle:
Living Right Side Up

One of the ways to live Right Side Up is through the ability to adapt to change. C-H-A-N-G-E represents each of the lessons Turtle was presented with: Choice, Honor, Affirm, Now, Goals, & Energy.

CONSIDER BECOMING A USC VOTING MEMBER!
|
|
- Becoming a voting member affirms your commitment to personal spiritual growth, ownership of your individual beliefs and a willingness to make a difference.
- Voting membership in Unity Spiritual Center helps to transform any old feelings of “not belonging.” Many of us arrive at Unity from other traditions having searched for a place where we feel at home. Embracing membership affirms, “I belong!”
- Voting members elect church leaders and set the future direction of the center.
- As a voting member, you become a part of the growing group of people who are living consciously and actively making a difference in the world.
According to our Bylaws, SECTION 3.01- QUALIFICATIONS OR MEMBERSHIP: “Anyone desiring to become a Voting Member of Unity Spiritual Center is required to attend a ‘Unity 101’ and ‘The ‘I’ of the Storm’ or equivalent communication classes prior to applying for membership. A voting member of Unity Spiritual Center shall also strive to live in accord with the Jesus Christ principles of Love and Truth as taught by Unity. He or she shall further the work of this Ministry through active interest, love, and support.”
We will provide more information about membership classes in the coming weeks.
