More love in it’s many forms – compassion, care, pleasure, affection – and from that fullness of self-love, open your heart to give purely from love, leaving guilt, obligation, and fear in 2012? Make this Sunday a service in service to love, and become an even more powerful force of God consciousness for yourself and the world in 2013.

Guest Speaker: Mike Robbins
Musical Inspiration: Unitas Sacred Sounds Choir

Author Mike Robbins discusses the magic, mystery, and transformation of death.

Visioning for Unity of Berkeley will be Friday February 1st from 7-9 in the Garden Room.

There will be a Member Meeting following service on February 10.
