“Embracing Wholeness: A Path of Collective Liberation”

Hispanic Heritage Month Recognition in Service

Rev. David Alexander

Wholeness is not something we must achieve—it is the spiritual truth of who we already are. As we awaken to the Divine Presence within, we learn to recognize that same sacred presence in one another. This message explores how prayer, compassion, and courageous action can move us beyond separation and toward collective healing. Our spirituality calls us not to escape the world, but to participate in its transformation. Together, we will embrace the inner freedom that empowers us to create a more just, loving, and liberated world.

Parents: Please sign your kids in at their classrooms, and then take them to Wallet Hall for Pre-session activities from 10:30 – 11:00.

Together, we’ll explore the season’s astrological shift, take part in a hands-on ritual with the four elements, and sink into a soothing crystal singing bowl sound bath. You’ll also have quiet time to reflect and give thanks. Come celebrate, recharge, and step into fall feeling grounded and whole.

“Just Say No”

Rev. Michael Gott

“A being is free only when it can determine and limit its activity.” Karl Barth

The companion teaching to our message “Just Say Yes” from last Sunday is that our “no” is also powerful in our lives. We are given the freedom to choose in this life. We cannot say “yes” to everything. And everything we do say “yes” to means that we are saying “no” to countless other possibilities. How do we decide? Discernment is a powerful tool. Asking ourselves this simple question can clear our path in powerful ways: “Does this choice expand me and increase my livingness?” If it does not, perhaps it’s time to learn the power of our “no.”

Parents: Please sign your kids in at their classrooms, and then take them to Wallet Hall for Pre-session activities from 10:30 – 11:00.

These speakers are some of the foremost thought leaders in our region, sharing their perspectives on the issues that face the Houston area.

At Unity of Houston, reaching out into the community is a proactive way in which we live the principles we believe – that we all spiritually connected, one to another. In this belief, when the consciousness of one is raised, that, in turn, raises the consciousness of us all. We connect to our Oneness by working with others to help those in need.

Please join us for lunch and find out how you can help support this organization and our community outreach projects.

Suggested lunch donation: $10

The power of our own voice is deeply healing, and when we chant the Divine Names, we harmonize with our Universal Source Creator. We tune into Unity Consciousness, balance our energy centers, and re-awaken the part of ourselves that is often forgotten as we get tangled up in daily life. Chanting mantras returns us to our Soul-Self and reconnects us to our bliss. We will chant in English, Sanskrit, and Aramaic. No prior chanting experience necessary. Bonnie is a multi-dimensional healer, spiritual counselor, teacher, singer/songwriter, and author. She has been leading chanting all over the world for over a decade.
