USC MAIL SAFETY
Our friends and neighbors have reported incidents of intruders going through their mail. On Sunday, 1/17 when I retrieved the mail, an envelope had been torn open. The contents, a check, was still inside, however, this has alerted us for the need for safety.
We have looked into installing a locking mailbox, but until it is installed, if you choose to mail your love offerings please mail them to:
Unity Spiritual Center
c/o Rev. Carmela Vuoso-Murphy
406 Hunt Drive
Milford, NJ 08848
The survival of Unity Spiritual Center, especially through these trying times, is dependent on the kind and generous donations of our members and supporters. For alternate ways of giving, please scroll down to the "Ways To Give" section of this communication.
Thank you, Rev. C.

COMING IN FEBRUARY
Sunday service series and weekly book study on See No Stranger
by Valarie Kaur
How do we love in a time of rage? How do we fix a broken world while not breaking ourselves? Valarie Kaur—renowned Sikh activist, filmmaker, and civil rights lawyer—describes revolutionary love as the call of our time, a radical, joyful practice that extends in three directions: to others, to our opponents, and to ourselves. It enjoins us to see no stranger but instead look at others and say: You are part of me I do not yet know. Starting from that place of wonder, the world begins to change: It is a practice that can transform a relationship, a community, a culture, even a nation
