Building From the Heart of Unity
Introducing...The Heart-O-Meter!
The Heart-O-Meter is a graphic designed to provide one-glance information on the status of the Building from the Heart of Unity effort.
The Vision and PhotoTeam will soon place a large, full-color version ofthe graphic in the sanctuary, so everyone can easily follow the project's success.
The first five red hearts represent a loving bequest, the next five green hearts represent monies pledged, and the last six white hearts await future funding.
It's happening!
Many thanks to all of you who have committed your
time, talents and treasures to support our new
sanctuary and grow together in raising
consciousness and building community.
To Date:
Total Fund to date:

As a reminder, the second Sunday of the month is

envelope.) We are grateful to accept pledges at any
time however, and appreciate you noting your
checks to distinguish between "general fund" and
"building fund pledge."
Building Vision Team Update
PROGRESS!!!
MOVING FORWARD
With the exterior walls and roof framing being substantially complete, we can now begin to see the fruits of our labor.
Our contractor, Gary Wilkes, Inc. is currently ordering doors and windows, scheduling the interior framing and exterior stucco finish, as well as making plans for tradesmen such as electricians, plumbers, and A/C contractors to begin their work.
A decision has recently been made to include a new metal roof over the existing sanctuary building as part of this project. Hopefully, all will be well protected by the time the summer rains become a daily reality.
Much work remains to be done. Daily prayers proclaiming Divine Order are still a necessity. Our dreams are taking shape

Don't be left out!
Our goal is to include everyone in the joy and success of raising
prosperity consciousness and being a part of this wonderful faith
and community building program. If you have not yet made a pledge
and still wish to do so, please know that envelopes will be available
in the foyer (or in the mail, upon request) for future contributions.
The second Sunday of each month will be Building from the Heart of Unity Sunday, for ease in planning contributions to this expansion program.
Building from the Heart of Unity Mission and Vision Statements:
Our Mission: Unity Church of Venice is a Center of Spiritual Light devoted to sharing the teachings of Jesus Christ with all seekers of Truth.
Our Vision: We see our spiritual home, our church, becoming a more active, visible force for change in ourselves, our community and our world. We envision a new sanctuary on our beautiful land that is an inspiration of visual beauty to match the inspiration we receive from the message, the music, the meditations, the gardens and our open and loving congregation. By adding classroom and conference space to our education building and updating our existing facility, we can bless many more people. We'll make our current sanctuary a full time fellowship hall that provides meeting space for community groups...people will know we are here. We will change the world one heart at a time, one spiritual message at a time...AND we'll have the space to do it with ease, beauty, comfort and grace.
