Parking Ambassador Program

Hello beloved colleagues,

Our new Parking Ambassador seva program is working.  Demonstrations include but are certainly not limited to:

  • NO vehicle break-ins since we started the program on December 3, 2012;
  • A radical reduction of unwanted / suspicious activity in our parking lots; specifically ZERO incidences this year;
  • Our Parking Ambassadors report gaining an increased sense of peace and acceptance of others;
  • Congregants, class & workshops attendees, staff and visitors alike are increasing their practice of gratitude by saying “Thank you” to our Parking Ambassadors as they arrive and leave our Center;
  • Increased and on-going education of our Parking Ambassadors and our Congregants, class & workshops attendees, staff and visitors alike to situational awareness and listening to our intuitive voice.

The Parking Ambassador seva created an abundance of opportunities for service to our Spiritual community.  While the number of people volunteering for this seva is growing, many more are needed to fill all the coverage times.
I am reaching out to each of you and asking that you take this into your spiritual practice: prayer, mediation, visioning, etc.

If this calls to you come join us.

If you think this might call to someone else, have a conversation with them and send them our way.

If any information / awareness / guidance is revealed to you – share it with us.

At the very least, please know with us, in consciousness, that the volunteers we are seeking are already seeking us and that everything is coming together perfectly to support this program and the safety of our beloved spiritual community.

If you have questions, you can contact me directly at:

(Note: I will be having knee surgery on Friday, February 15 so I might be unavailable or slow to respond for the first week after my surgery)

Blessings beloveds,

Rafe

Science of Mind Archives Relocated and Reopened

I have wanted to visit Unity Village since I first became aware of it, and being at the opening celebration of the Science of Mind archives gave me a perfect opportunity to do that. I am in awe and appreciation for those who have gathered and found a way to preserve the teachings of Ernest Holmes in such a special place that I found Unity Village to be. At the celebration dinner, it was interesting to hear the presentations of those who spoke not only of the early days of Ernest Holmes but also of the Science of Mind magazine. Many of us no doubt remember our first introduction to Science of Mind, as I certainly do. For me, it was the Science of Mind magazine through which I then found the church. At the archive,s it was fun to be able to read and photograph the page from the Science of Mind magazine on the day I was born. How easy it is to take what we have for granted, and as I reflect with appreciation for the teaching and the preservation of the archives, I ask myself what am I doi...

Something New: Volunteer Recognition Team at the Center

As the name implies, the Volunteer Recognition Team (VRT) was created to recognize and acknowledge the numerous groups of volunteers who devote their time, energy, and hearts in support of the Center. Some groups are visible, some work more quietly, behind the scenes. For instance, did you know that the Jail Ministry group provides books and Spiritual Coaching to inmates in Sonoma County? Or that Project Sleep Warm works all year long to produce and distribute quilts to those in need? Starting in July of this year, one volunteer group a month will be recognized for their support of the Center. You will see their table in the social hall, and will be given a flyer upon entering the sanctuary explaining what they do, and any help they may need. Don’t miss the video of a volunteer from that group explaining how being part of the group has touched their lives. The video will be presented at the end of the first service of the month and posted on the Center’s social media. This year, ...
