Celebrate Easter with Us!

celebrate easter

In the Easter story, resurrection unfolds in a garden—a symbol of new life and sacred possibility. This Easter we’ll explore how the seeds of love and peace planted in our hearts can never be contained by fear or circumstance. Like spring flowers pushing through the soil, the Divine within us is just waiting to rise and bloom – we simply need to nurture it. Join us this Easter as we explore the sacred garden of the soul and discover how what is planted in love always blossoms into new and abundant life.

Winter Qigong Community

Join us in an ancient practice of qigong, which emphasizes movement, breath, intention and meditation. For thousands of years, the practices have increased health, transformation, and spiritual growth. Working with nature and the seasons, we’ll harmonize the vital energy that flows through everything (Qi). Winter brings the most yin energy, an opportunity for inner alignment, nourishment, and wisdom. As we allow our inner river to flow with these seasonal energies, we connect with water, the element of Winter.

Wednesdays 10:00-11:00AM
Feb 4 - March 18 (7 weeks)
Feb 4th cancelled due to snow

This winter we will be exploring what it means to truly belong…how to stay connected to ourselves and others in a divided, lonely and polarized world. We will discover how true belonging doesn’t require us to change who we are. It requires us to be who we are.

Pathways to CommUnity

Rev. Victoria is inviting you to the next Pathways to CommUnity class on Saturday, March 28. If you’ve been coming to Unity Center of Peace for awhile you know that we are a loving, supportive community. We believe in being there for each other…both spiritually and practically. We're about connecting in our hearts with each other, and actively practicing our connection with Divine Source. We learn that the more we plug into this Source the more our lives transform, and the more we can radiate that love into the world.

We will meet in the UCP parking lot and walk up the driveway to the road together as a group. Please use the online registration form to let us know you plan to help out.
