‘Catch the Vision’ at the next Unity service
Rev. Christine Lee will give the talk “Catch the Vision, Live the Dream” at the Unity of Whidbey service on Sunday.
What does one live for? What is God calling for one to be in life? These are extraordinary times. There is a call to a higher consciousness that is evolving in our world. It is the time for all the “dreamers to wake the nation.”
Lee will speak of being clear about the greater vision for one’s personal life.
Musicians will be Tadd CharetteNunn and special musical guest Gloria Ferry Brennan, a young, award-winning violinist. Chris Nelson will serve as platform assistant.
The service is 10 a.m. Sunday at Unity’s church at 5671 Crawford Road. All are welcome.
