Join us for an uplifting spiritual interfaith gathering on the first, third and fifth Sundays from 10:00 to 11:15 a.m. in the community room at Greenlife just north of Greenlife Grocery Store entrance, at 70 Merrimon Ave., Asheville, NC.
Enjoy coffee and pastries & the Spirit of the Unity Cafe!
Unity Cafe gatherings are led by Rev. Dorothy St. Clare-Dennett, LUT and Rev. Georgette Cressend and guest speakers. We'll sip coffee, munch on pastries, ponder a topic of timely and spiritual interest, and share our wisdom and stories. It's a time of casual gathering, interfaith and universal spiritual exploration, openhearted sharing, and meditation within the quiet of your own Being. The musicians who bring their talents are an uplifting part of the Café experience.
We have lively conversation and community. We grapple with the questions that touch our hearts and daily lives, and enter into the possibilities and mysteries of the Divine. We acknowledge that everyone has their own perspective and invite people to share from their own authentic life experiences. Sharing is respectful and open-minded. We don't seek agreement as much as thoughtful insight and personal awareness. Ultimately, each of us has our own unique experience of Spirit and must live from that experience.
Founded in 2002, the Unity Café is a 501c(3) nonprofit corporation of North Carolina and a member of the Association of Unity Churches.
Vision Statement of Unity Café
Unity's five foundational principles, the perennial Truths of most faiths, and each person's inner awareness provide a pathway to deepen the connection to the Divine and Sacred within ourselves and all Life. The Unity Café is a place to honor, to heal, and to celebrate all of Life.
Unity's five foundational principles are paraphrased as:
1) The Divine is the ineffable ultimate Unity of All and is active everywhere in everything.
2) Humans, all creatures, and all creation are an expression of the Divine and are essentially Whole and Holy.
3) We create our experiences by what we choose to think and what we feel and believe.
4) Through affirmative prayer and meditation, we connect with the Divine and can express more fully our innate wholeness in our lives.
5) We heal our world and ourselves when we live from our Wholeness.
