A Great Way to Spend a Thursday

It is pouring rain as I drive to Unity this morning. It's recycling day. Thank goodness I took the four recycling tubs out yesterday when it was beautiful weather.

In the office, I check my calendar for this week to see my "to-do" list.Regular items on Thursday are preparing the mid-week deposit and post my blog entry for the week (if I haven't already).

Thursday is a special day at Unity. Every Thursday morning (except the first week of the month) Connie Wilson facilitates the Joel Goldsmith/Infinite Way Study Group. Today there are 9 attendees. The discussion runs from 10 until 11:45 AM. Today as they emerge from the bookstore where they meet, they are celebrating finishing their current book The Art of Spiritual Healing and ready in two weeks to start the next book: Living Now.

Someone asks how they can listen to the Ministerial Candidate events of last Sunday. Chris Polacco (thanks so much, Chris) video-recorded the message which is uploaded to YouTube.

Ann Anderson stops in to collect the supplies for Milford Live, an outreach opportunity for Unity, with nearly 10,000 people likely to visit Milford, NJ, on Saturday from Noon to 5 PM. Supplies include two eight-foot folding tables that Dan Cavanaugh and I lift into her car - a Honda Fit - and somehow they do fit with room for Ann - but absolutely no room for a passenger!

Polly Fox stops by to help Ann and we update the information on Unity's 2014 Holiday Shoppe (our third year) which will be the four Sundays in November. See your bulletin and the kitchen bulletin board for the flyer next week.

Every Thursday (every Thursday of the year except Thanksgiving) from Noon to 1 PM is Unity's Meditation hour in our bookstore. Some "Joel" class members leave and others go into meditation.

Jean McBride joins me in the office to fold and stuff our weekly bulletin each Thursday.

All and all it's a great way to spend a Thursday - rain or no rain.
