Celebrating our Past

On Sunday, July 5, we had a very special service "Celebrating our Past."

Lisa Nichols led us through a review of the highlights of our years since the Center's founding in 1948 by Rev. Marie Giles.

We had a delightful video moment of experiencing Rev. Carol Ruth Knox (who followed Rev. Giles) teaching in our sanctuary. David Brooks shared his experience of this marvelous minister who built Unity Center into the largest Unity ministry west of the Mississippi at that time. Rev. David talked about Rev. Knox's death and its impact on our Center.

We had video messages from all the minister's since that time. Rev. Marge Britt reminded us we hold a mystical consciousness and Rose Trandby shared the inspiration she had received from Rev. Marge. Rob Seidenspinner told about the opening and connection he experienced with Rev. Culliver who had a virtual message for us as well.

The dynamic team of Lafser, Leonard and Lynch each gave us their blessings and Rev. Max Lafser reminded us that this renovation was a part of the 2010 Vision that they had established ten years ago. Ron Salazar told of some of the spiritual nuggets he had learned from Rev. Max as well as Gene Lynch and Suzanne Leonard who served us at the beginning of the Millennium.

We remembered the peace wall which was built during Rev. Max's time.
   
We then had a special presentation by Pat Morgan on the meaning and symbolism of the Art that has for so many years decorated our sanctuary wall. The art will be lovingly taken down before construction and our history team will be looking at how to honor its memory and the wonderful history of our Center in our renewed facilities.

We are so blessed by all the wonderful leaders who have guided our Center. We have shared our spiritual journey together and our Center has been a place of blessing for many, many people throughout the years.
