Here's what's happening at Unity of Chattanooga:
UNITY METAPHYSICAL DISCUSSION GROUP
While Amanda Adamson is on hiatus for the summer, this discussion group is taking on a little different format. The next two meetings are May 8th and May 22nd, both at 6:30 PM. The theme for May is Navigating Spiritual Speedbumps and will be co-facilitated by Nome Stark, Kelly Thomson and Eric Miller. All are welcome to attend.
REV FAYANN SCHMIDT - GUEST SPEAKER ON MAY 11TH
It's Mother's Day and Rev Fayann is here to present "MOTHER, OUR COMFORTER". We are the comforter and the comforted. As time and circumstances shift, so do we. The primary purpose of a comforter is to alleviate emotional distress, provide solace and reduce feelings of worry and upset. In a spiritual context, the comforter can be described as a guide and source of strength, helping another to remember who we have come here to be. Please join us as we celebrate the Divine Feminine in all of us.
MOTHER'S DAY LUNCHEON ON MAY 11TH
It's time to shower the woman in our lives with blessings and one way to do that is to have a luncheon in their honor. All are invited to share in this special event hosted by the church. We hope that you will bring your moms, your daughters your female friends and any woman you know who deserves to be honored. The luncheon will be served immediately following the service.
REV BRONTE COLBERT - GUEST SPEAKER ON MAY 18TH
Presenting "Do You Know Who You Are?"
You are a child of the Universe on a unique, meaningful, important journey: YOUR LIFE!
Here you are in this lifetime, a magnificent miracle, chosen and empowered to discover, to create, and to do wonderful things.

ONGOING EVENTS AND CLASSES:
SUNDAY SCHOOL FOR KIDS
We now have a weekly Sunday School program that meets in our lower level and is directed by Laura Noyes. Our youth program and lessons emphasize the 5 Basic Unity Principles and other universal spiritual Truths. We help them to realize and affirm their Oneness with God and their Divine potential. Kids of all ages are welcome.
WELLNESS WARRIORS
Meets on the 1st & 3rd Thursdays of each month at noon. Cancer survivor Eric Miller heads up a positive, practical, support group for people who are dealing with health issues. Share your challenges and share your victories as well as set positive health intentions for ourselves. This group was created to empower each other on our journeys to living a healthier life. Instead of being a wellness worrier, let's all become wellness warriors!
METAPHYSICS DISCUSSION GROUP
Meets on the 2nd & 4th Thursdays of each month at 6:30 PM. Join in on this lively discussion group that meets at our facility located at 105 McBrien RD at 6:30 PM on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month. Once you begin to experience the world metaphysically, you will start to see the world differently, ultimately creating change in your outer life and circumstances. Currently this group is being led by Nome Stark, Kelly Thompson and Eric Miller. All are welcome to attend.
POWER OF EIGHT GROUP
Meets on the 1st Sunday of each month at 12:15 in our downstairs meditation room following fellowship. All are welcome.
SPIRIT CONNECTION GROUPS
Our next group will take place sometime later this year in the Fall. Groups meet either in-person, or online, and are typically made up of 5 to 12 people participating in a cohesive, strategic program that is designed to inspire our spiritual community. Groups meet once a week for 6-10 weeks to experience healthy, spiritually balanced on the principles called “The Five C’s”, which are:
Communion: SpiritGroup members grow through personal reflection, prayer and/or meditation time. Members begin each meeting with prayer or meditation and group members volunteer to take on the role of a prayer leader for the group.
Connection: SpiritGroup members cultivate fun and fulfilling relationships with each other. Group gatherings contribute to the development of meaningful relationships.
Compassion: All members of the group proactively seek to support and care for each other in times of joy and times of challenges.
Community: SpiritGroups enrich the community by choosing to serve together in ways that benefit the local, regional, and/or global community by participating in one community service project together.
Challenge: SpiritGroup members proactively apply what they are learning through their group gatherings. They encourage each other in their spiritual growth and provide non-judgmental support to help each other progress toward their intentions for spiritual growth.
