Welcome to Unity of Ft. Collins

How are you? 

From Liz:  I was on another call with Gov. Polis for community Faith Leaders. And we are being advised to continue with online services through May. They will be able to determine later in May, from the  May data, where we stand for June.

With gratitude and love always,
Liz

The Gifts of Covid-19 – the Map of Change

Dearest Beloved One,

We are all familiar with the saying, "The only constant in life is change," and we are definitely now in a time of deep evolutionary change.

The Covid-19 pandemic has rocked our entire world, the only world we've known up until now.

Unity Principle #1 states that "God/The Divine/Spirit is All there is." Does this mean that the pandemic we're experiencing now is also God/The Divine in expression? If we believe the Five Principles are true, then the answer is absolutely, yes. Covid-19 is an expression of the Divine.

You may be struggling to see how Covid-19 could be an expression of God, of Goodness, with folks having the virus, deaths occurring, folks facing financial hardships, loss of jobs, income, livelihood, and more.

This is what we'll begin to explore this Sunday in our next series of talks that will address change and what we are here to gain through the Covid-19 experience. The book I've chosen as a backdrop for our talks in May is one of my favorites, "Guidance from the Darkness - The Transforming Power of the Divine Feminine in Difficult Times" by Rev. Mary Murray Shelton.

Join us this Sunday as we begin our journey together exploring "Change, Divine Guidance, and Qualities of Being," knowing together  we are opening to greater gifts of and as the Divine that lives within, through, and as everyone of us now and in all the days to come.

I look forward to seeing you on Sunday!! Have a blessed, safe, and peace-filled week, dear friend.

With great love and gratitude always,
Liz

Here's What's Happening
Join Rick THIS MORNING, and every Thursday morning at 10am Mountain Time for Space Cruiser Thursdays, where the group discusses A. H. Almaas’ Spacecruiser Inquiry book.

In this new work, Almaas uses the metaphor of a “spacecruiser” to describe a method of exploring the immediacy of personal experience—a way of investigating our moment-by-moment feelings, thoughts, reactions, and behaviors through a process of open-ended questioning.
