Movie Night Saturday May 26th

Suzanne & I will be watching the Celestine Prophecy Saturday Night and you are invited to join us.

This book was a big hit in the 90's and I've been told it was pretty good even though the book is always better than the movie.

We hope you can join us.

Here's a blurb from Netflix

When disillusioned history teacher John Woodsen (Matthew Settle) gets laid off from his job, he finds himself bored and rudderless until on impulse he hops on a plane and flies to Peru to meet an old friend who's searching for some ancient scrolls. To his surprise, Woodsen finds a lot more than sacred texts on this journey of spiritual awakening based on James Redfield's best-selling book. Hector Elizondo and Annabeth Gish co-star.

Karl Anthony song

Karl Anthony's song Pray For Those Who Hate

National Day of Prayer

Today is the National Day of Prayer and we join with people of all faiths in prayers for peace and healing.

A song has been posted on you tube titled Pray for Those Who Hate. Interestingly there has been some discussion that this is not a “proper” prayer due to the use of the word hate and that somehow this may violate the correct use of the Law of Attraction.

It would appear that some of the students of “the secret” and the law of attraction are becoming a little too legalistic in this regard.

Friends who else would be better to pray for than those who hate or are suffering? If we are afraid to acknowledge these conditions in the world they will never change.

If you get a chance to listen to the song let me know what you think.

You are in our prayers today and always;

John

National Day of Prayer is Tomorrow

The National Day of Prayer is a day designated by the United States Congress as a day when all Americans regardless of faith are asked to come together and pray in their own way. It is held on the first Thursday in May. A "National Day of Prayer" Task Force was created in order to coordinate the event.

History of the National Day of Prayer
There have been several national days of prayer in the U.S. before the day was made official in 1952. The Continental Congress issued a day of prayer in 1775 to designate "a time for prayer in forming a new nation". Thomas Jefferson argued however, that although individual religious organizations had the right to designate a day of prayer, the U.S. government should not have that right.

On April 17, 1952, President Truman signed a bill proclaiming the National Day of Prayer into law. It was in 1972 that the National Prayer Committee was formed. It went on to create the National Day of Prayer Task Force, with the intended purpose of coordinating events for the National Day of Prayer. In 1988, President Reagan signed a bill into law decreeing that the National Day of Prayer should be held on the first Thursday of May.

The intention of the National Day of Prayer was always that it would be a day when members of all faiths could pray together in their own way. It would involve Christians, Jews, Muslims, as well as Buddhists, Hindus, Aboriginals, Zoroastrians, and all others, of any faith or of no organized religion, who wished to participate. (Wikipedia)

I invite you to take a moment tomorrow and pray for our nation and for your family & friends.

If you would like to submit a prayer request to us at unityprayer@gmail.com we will hold you request in prayer for 30 days with Silent Unity.
