Mission: Centered in God, we cocreate a world that works for all. Values: 1. Spirit-Led - We are centered in God. Sprit leads our thoughts and actions as we co-create a world that works for all. 2.

We teach universal spiritual principles that change lives. 5. Prosperity - Living in the infinite flow of God's good, we draw from God's inexhaustible supply and wisely use our rich resources to serve the world Thoughts From the Minister Rev. Fred Clare T Centered in God, We co-create a world that works for all his month is designated Love in Action month and I want to assist you in discovering the many ways you can find a place here at Unity of St. Petersburg to pursue selfless service as a path to God, connect with other people, use your spiritual gifts and talents, deepen your spiritual life and make an important contribution to the life of our spiritual community. Our Love in Action Program is prepared to support you in discovering your spiritual gifts, choosing where to share your gifts, provide you with training, answer your questions and help you evaluate your service experience. Our goal is for you to have a satisfying, rewarding experience when you serve in our community. In the process, we foresee that some of you will discover new friends, talents, and opportunities for leadership. During the month, I will present a workshop on discerning your spiritual gifts. The Spiritual Gifts Discernment Workshop is designed to help you discern the spiritual gifts or charisms you have been given. It helps you begin to learn how to use those gifts to serve God, other people, and the world. Charism is simply the Greek word used in the New Testament for "favor" or "gratuitous gift". Charisms, or spiritual gifts, are special abilities given to you by Spirit enabling you to be a powerful channel of God's love. Whether extraordinary or ordinary, charisms are to be used in service to build up the world. Charisms, or spiritual gifts, differ from natural talents in two important ways. Charisms are not "inborn" or inherited from our parents, but are given to us by Spirit. There are gifts of the Holy Spirit that we are given to keep and gifts we are given to give away. Charisms are gifts given to us to give away. Charisms are always focused outward; they are especially empowered ways by which God's love and goodness reaches our neighbor through us. They expressed through us and enable us to serve as a beneficial presence in our world. As we learned during our Spiritual Liberation Series, we are here to become enlightened so we can participate in co-creating a world that works for all. So, explore the opportunities and listen to see how Spirit calls to you. Let your imagination soar. You never know if you will enjoy a position until you try it and Unity of St. Petersburg is a great place to experiment and take risks. If you have questions or wish to explore other ideas that are not listed, please speak with Lillie Cintron or call me.

2 Page 2 OUTREACH TEAM UPDATE Thanks to our Operation Birthday Child, every child who is presently living in a local shelter is receiving a beautiful gift bag filled with just the right gifts and a card with a loving message on their birthday. Thanks to everyone who has donated gifts bags, birthday cards, jewelry for teens, and of course money. A special thanks to Kellie Beale who submitted and received a $600 grant from Tech Data for our Outreach Team s community projects. At our Annual Meeting we set the goal of providing twenty women in third world countries with $50 microloans though FINCA International so they can start a small business. As of now we have provided twelve loans assisting women with families in seeing their dreams come true. Let s continue to hold our vision and see us easily reaching our goal of eight more loans in the next six months. Remember this is a gift that keeps on giving as 98% of the women repay their loans and that money is then loaned to another woman. To donate, see me, deposit money in collection can in Outreach Corner or contact the church office. As Michael Beckwith writes in his book, Spiritual Liberation, Through all forms of giving we become the vehicle through which the Spirit gives of itself and we become a beneficial presence on the planet. This is what our outreach program is about. Love & Peace Tania Citvaras Outreach Team Leader New! Angel Team forming in August The purpose of the ANGEL TEAM will be to provide temporary, supplementary support to other USP family members during those stressful times related to events such as injury, illness, following births, deaths, etc. Filling this role is one of the ways our community demonstrates love in action and puts into practice compassion and human kindness. See Judy Mellor, Liilie Cintron, or Rev. Fred for details on how to serve your spiritual community family. SPIRITUAL GIFTS DISCERNMENT WORKSHOP WEDNESDAY AUG. 11 TH & 18 TH 7-8:30 PM This two week workshop, facilitated by Rev. Fred Clare, is designed to reveal ones spiritual gifts and learn how to use them to become a beneficial presence on the planet. Participants will have the opportunity to: Take the Spiritual Gifts Inventory and discover their unique spiritual gifts Learn characteristics of the most common spiritual gifts Learn the process for discerning how to best put their spiritual gifts to use Benefits of discerning spiritual gifts: Discerning spiritual gifts gives one a new sense of personal purpose and direction. Many individuals don t understand the active part they play in fulfilling their Spiritual Community s mission and are excited to discover God is calling them and equipping them for a unique work of love. Discerning and exercising one's spiritual gifts is a wonderful catalyst of spiritual growth. Every gift represents a call from God. Becoming clear about our spiritual gifts greatly clarifies decision-making. A lot of energy is released for service as individuals acknowledge where they are not gifted and begin to concentrate on the areas where they are Understanding our spiritual gifts helps prevent unnecessary failure and burn-out. We are much less likely to burn out if working in the arena of our giftedness Recognizing the spiritual gifts of all fosters coresponsibility in the Community s mission to the world. This Workshop will be presented on a love offering basis. Sign up sheet is located in our bookstore.

5 Page 5 Giving carries immeasurable benefits with it, for it loosens us from the personal life, unifies us with the universal, and so opens our inner and outer life to the grace of God.
