With Debra Baker
This meditation provides the opportunity to go into a deep, deep experience of the Presence. Meditation does wonderful things to our human bodies, giving them vital time to revitalize and heal themselves. At the same time, our souls experience their real, true selves, going to the place inside that is timeless and eternal. After the meditation, there will be a sacred prayer circle to share and honor one another’s prayer intentions. You’ll experience such serenity you won’t want it to end. Love offering.

Eat Well, Move Well, Think Well, and You Will Live Well
7 to 8:30 p.m.
Thursdays, February 17 thru March 10
With Andy Harding
Most of us know that we need to ear well, move, well, and think well. However, most people don’t really know why. This 4-part class has a lot of information and will be beneficial whether you have studied wellness or would like to begin. Once we learn why we need to eat, move and think well, the how to change is a lot easier. Love offering.
Session 1: The nervous and immune system; how it is affected by emotional, chemical and or mechanical stressors.
Session 2: Moving well can and does boost our innate healing ability and general health.
Session 3: Eating well: The innate diet helps keep our cells and our body balanced and pure. By eating properly long enough, we can eliminate the need for most if not all medications.
Session 4: Think Well: For years we at Unity have known how important it is to think well. Now there is research that has proven this to be true. There is evidence-based research showing the chemical pathways that are affected by both positive thoughts and negative thoughts.

Oneness Blessing: An Introduction and Overview

With Dion Koch and Genevieve Normand
The Oneness Blessing, also referred to as Deeksha, is a non-denominational benediction that is a gift for all. It is currently being given every day to people all over the world; people of all nationalities, religions and spiritual beliefs. The blessing is a direct transfer of intelligent sacred energy which causes the heart to open, quiets the chatter of the mind, opens doors to higher states of consciousness, and initiates a process of Awakening into Oneness.
In preparation for introducing the Oneness Blessing to Unity Church of Overland Park, we are offering an introductory evening for all who may be interested in learning more about this transformational blessing. Come join with UCOP congregants Dion Koch and Genevieve Normand as they offer an overview of the Oneness Blessing. During this informational evening, participants will obtain:
- In-depth information about the Oneness Movement and Oneness Blessing
- Experience an opening and clearing of the Chakras
- Information on what it means to be a Oneness Blessing Giver
- Materials outlining the Oneness Blessing community and events
Love offering.
