Introduction
World Day of Prayer 2017
Welcome to World Day of Prayer 2017 This year our Prayer Chaplains urge
you to find Peace in the Midst of a world in turmoil from natural disasters
political rhetoric climate change and discrimination of people of all kinds
Affirmative positive prayer is the foundation of Unity Charles and Myrtle
Fillmore co-founders of Unity turned to affirmative prayer to heal Myrtlersquos
tuberculosis which was the AIDS of her day That healing grew into a
movement that has spread to 270 countries World Day of Prayer began as a
student project that has become celebrated in Unity centers globally and live
streamed from Unity Village MO at wwwunityorgwdop
Our alcoves are lovingly created by our Unity North ministries and core
intention teams Each year our volunteers express their visual and energetic
manifestation of each Teamrsquos intention and purpose As you sit in silent prayer
in each alcove allow your mind to relax Take as much time as you need
When walking the labyrinth allow others the time and space they need as well
Some people like to begin the labyrinth with a question and slowly walk to the
center repeating the question as a meditation They sit for a while in the
center in the Silence Then they wind their way out of the labyrinth and allow
the answer to the question to come into their mind There is no right or wrong
way to walk the labyrinth just the way that is best for you
Unity North Prayer Chaplains are available to pray with you individually The
Chaplains are recognizable by their purple stoles We are here to serve you
As you leave this Holy Space there is a guest book near the entrance We ask
that you please sign the book and share with us any thoughts or comments you
have We hold that you carry the experience of Peace in the Midst with you

were asked to draw their ldquoHope for Humanityrdquo on the circles and return
them A small version of the Global Mandala was part of World Day of
Prayer 2016
Response was overwhelming Over 4000 circles were received Sonia is
proud to say her dream was achieved News coverage of the project

PEACE IN THE MIDST
Rev Richard Burdick
I return to the mountain I return to the ocean
I return to the womb of creation where every part of my existence
became me
Here in this place of power darkness stillness and pure being
I find peace
I find innocence and I find the eternal goodness at the center of it all
Here I escape the bonds that have held me captive
Here I am free
Free from thoughts actions and circumstances
Free from condition opinion or history
I am enveloped by the calm assurance that all is well
Once in this place
Peace is no longer an experience
It is the very essence of who I am
I not only observe it I express it
I breathe it I live it I am it
Peace in the midst
I am the eye of the storm the light in the darkness
The stillness in the center and the cradle of a new reality
For myself and the world
This is more than just a moment it is an essential awareness
Not merely a fleeting escape it is an eternal state of being
I AM the mountain I AM the ocean
I AM the womb of creation
I AM peace in the midst
Board of Directors
Just The Two Of Us
Love often expresses as a paradox
From within and from with out
But regardless of your point of view
Gods umbrella always covers you
Affirm your truth or your need
Then trust spirit to proceed
To deliver in the midst
The peace you seek your wanted bliss
The paradox may seem a conflict
But two is really one
So whether within or out
Gods umbrella covers the one

Unity North Staff Prayer
Let us always recognize demonstrate and share the Divinity in each of us
In the early morning hours of each day As we step through these doors
Let us each remember this God is in this house
Let every thought we have Every word we speak Every action we take
Be guided by the Spirit that dwells Within each of us
May we always remember The faces of those we are here to serve
And the love each one is seeking May we honor every path
And protect each personrsquos right To live in peace as they were created
As we move about our day Let us quietly be guided
by the God of our understanding knowing that as we do
we are making a difference on this planet
For this and so much more we are grateful
Amen
Interfaith Core Intention
Celebrating and Honoring All Paths to God
ldquohellipWe as persons of different religious traditions will tirelessly proclaim
that peace and justice are inseparable and that peace in justice is the only
path which humanity can take toward a future of hope In a world with ever
more open borders shrinking distances and better relations as a result of a
broad network of communications we are convinced that security freedom
and peace will never be guaranteed by force but by mutual trusthelliprdquo

Infinite Peace
By Cecelia Smith
Within the center of Bei ng
Clothed in garments of Love
Lives the peace which is
Beyond all understanding
Calming stormy seas
Balancing emerging storms
Within the everlasting arms of grace
We walk with giants of grace
Striding with purposeful strength
Knowing the seat of power
Within the center of Being
Holds our infinite peace

Animal Ministry
Dear God
May love peace and compassion
for all Beings be expressed
everywhere on earth
We give thanks to the animals for their teachings love and messages
from the divine
They bring us Peace
They bring us Joy
They bring us endless Love to fill our heart so much that it overflows and
heals others
Thank you God for sending animals
The most magical gift from your heart to ours
We are forever changed by them
Grief MinistryIn Memoriam
The Peace of Wild Things By Wendell Barry When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my childrens lives may be I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water and the great heron feeds I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief I come into the presence of still water And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light For a time I rest in the grace of the world and am free
Alcove 9 amp 10
Suicide Awareness
Spirit of the Living God that dwells in and through all creation
we call on your presence to remind us that
although we grieve the physical loss of our loved one
their spirit lives on forever
Remind us that they are as close to us as our next breath
that we need only open our hearts to feel hear and experience their
presence
We are strengthened with this knowing and blessed by the time we
shared with our loved one
We give thanks for the time we shared with them on this journey
knowing that they blessed us and so many others
with the Light of their Being
As we seek Peace in the Midst of the pain of our loss
we also acknowledge the possibility to allow more love into our life
We live with an open heart bolstered by the love of Eternal Indwelling
Oneness
knowing that we are never alone
We acknowledge that as we continue to allow ourselves to love
we receive more love in return and we keep the Light of our loved one
burning brightly
as our Light burns ever brighter and brighter
And so it is Amen
Prayer Shawl Ministry
I wrap a shawl around me and feel the comfort within The touch of the shawl helps quiet the noise of the world
I know only peace in the midst of all else Thank you God
Amen
Alcove 11 amp 12
Sanctuary Saints
As the challenges of daily life enfold us
Like storm clouds darkening the sky
We can respond with infinite choices
Will our choice worsen a situation or
Can a simple thought heal the world
Thank you Divine Mind for the moment of surrender when
We release our need to be right and
We choose to be the ray of light shining through the storm
Amen
The room is empty
Quiet and at peace
As I open the door to this place
The sun streams through the windows
Making patterns on the chairs and floor
I sit in awe and wonder
At the miracle
Not brick and mortar
Not dust and bone
But Spirit and Infinity
In Peace everlasting
In my heart
In this my Spiritual home

The World Is A Very Beautiful Place
Written and Illustrated by Jordan Vail
The world is a very beautiful place
Full of magical wonders animals with grace
Itrsquos also full of hurt and crime
But God is with us any time
The seasons pass our feelings change
We canrsquot use happiness as an exchange
For what we have for what we give
The world will go on and let us live

YOU
(Youth of Unity)
Peace in the Midst
Katie Cruce
Peace in the midst We bring forth the peace and serenity that your love
gives us We affirm that we not only have peace bring peace but that we
are peace In the chaos and worries everyday life give us we spread peace
by spreading your love and the divine potential you give us The world is full
of chaos but we come together as brothers and sisters in God and in the
human race to bring peace forward We stay peaceful because we know
and affirm that with God anything is possible We stay peaceful because we
all have perfection in us because we were all made in the amazing image of
God We radiate love we radiate joy we radiate peace We are love we are
joy we are peace Going out in the world we thank you for giving us the gift
of spreading peacefulness and joy
Let us all spread peace and love And so it is Namaste Amen

Visualize world peace Project this calming soothing peaceful energy into
the hearts and minds of everyone on the planet Feel the population of
the planet relaxing into a smooth calm state Feel yourself relaxing into a
smooth calm state Quietly say to yourself I am peace calm safety

project this aura of peace wherever you go You find that others are
attracted to your calm serene peaceful presence They want to be

I Love because I can
I Love because I am Love
Love abundant Love all around Me as I sit here
Gratefulness overruns me as a river after Autumn showers
I invite you to follow me into the woods
Where the animals are at play
Where the trees are happily providing you with shade
The place so in alignment so effortlessly being
In this moment everything just is
It ebbs and flows with ease
The ego and mind are at rest
Releasing all feeling of need and unquenched longing
Just Be Here Now
Even our breath has not ceased when we are sleeping or not minding it
It is completely ok to release yourself from the search for meaning
You are the meaning You are the purpose You are the goal
You have already been created with everything you will ever need
We are already created in perfect design
Remember you are a child of God remember your birthright
You are the intimate connections between atoms a dancing
relationship of microscopic components
a purposeful conversation within the microcosm of divinely aligned
organisms
Let the electricity flowing through your body hold you together as you
relax and be gentle with yourself
In truth you are both the Light and the shadow
You are pure energy enjoying this moment with yourself
Know that you are more than enough
You are overflowing with Unconditional love
You are vibration at perfect pitch All is exactly how it is right now
Remembering this is the doorway to a new world of possibilities A new
day given to you in unconditional love
Have an Amazing World Day of PrayermdashQuinton Johnson

PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF THIS EARTH
by His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche
At this very moment for the people and nations of this earth
May not even the names disease famine war and suffering be heard
But rather may pure conduct merit wealth and prosperity increase
And may supreme good fortune and well-being always arise
Singles Ministry
This poem is by Ravine Sathasivam
When you look for peace then peace lies within you
When you search for peace then it is not hard to find
When you want to keep peace alive then you allow white doves to fly
over you
When you make peace with others then the whole world lives in your
heart
When you let peace be in the world then you live in a wonderful world
When you open the door for peace the peace welcomes you
Let peace prevail in our wonderful world

PEACE IN THE MIDST
Rev Richard Burdick
I return to the mountain I return to the ocean
I return to the womb of creation where every part of my existence
became me
Here in this place of power darkness stillness and pure being
I find peace
I find innocence and I find the eternal goodness at the center of it all
Here I escape the bonds that have held me captive
Here I am free
Free from thoughts actions and circumstances
Free from condition opinion or history
I am enveloped by the calm assurance that all is well
Once in this place
Peace is no longer an experience
It is the very essence of who I am
I not only observe it I express it
I breathe it I live it I am it
Peace in the midst
I am the eye of the storm the light in the darkness
The stillness in the center and the cradle of a new reality
For myself and the world
This is more than just a moment it is an essential awareness
Not merely a fleeting escape it is an eternal state of being
I AM the mountain I AM the ocean
I AM the womb of creation
I AM peace in the midst

Love often expresses as a paradox
From within and from with out
But regardless of your point of view
Gods umbrella always covers you
Affirm your truth or your need
Then trust spirit to proceed
To deliver in the midst
The peace you seek your wanted bliss
The paradox may seem a conflict
But two is really one
So whether within or out
Gods umbrella covers the one

Grief MinistryIn Memoriam
The Peace of Wild Things By Wendell Barry When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my childrens lives may be I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water and the great heron feeds I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief I come into the presence of still water And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light For a time I rest in the grace of the world and am free

Suicide Awareness
Spirit of the Living God that dwells in and through all creation
we call on your presence to remind us that
although we grieve the physical loss of our loved one
their spirit lives on forever
Remind us that they are as close to us as our next breath
that we need only open our hearts to feel hear and experience their
presence
We are strengthened with this knowing and blessed by the time we
shared with our loved one
We give thanks for the time we shared with them on this journey
knowing that they blessed us and so many others
with the Light of their Being
As we seek Peace in the Midst of the pain of our loss
we also acknowledge the possibility to allow more love into our life
We live with an open heart bolstered by the love of Eternal Indwelling
Oneness
knowing that we are never alone
We acknowledge that as we continue to allow ourselves to love
we receive more love in return and we keep the Light of our loved one
burning brightly
as our Light burns ever brighter and brighter
And so it is Amen

As the challenges of daily life enfold us
Like storm clouds darkening the sky
We can respond with infinite choices
Will our choice worsen a situation or
Can a simple thought heal the world
Thank you Divine Mind for the moment of surrender when
We release our need to be right and
We choose to be the ray of light shining through the storm
Amen
The room is empty
Quiet and at peace
As I open the door to this place
The sun streams through the windows
Making patterns on the chairs and floor
I sit in awe and wonder
At the miracle
Not brick and mortar
Not dust and bone
But Spirit and Infinity
In Peace everlasting
In my heart
In this my Spiritual home

I Love because I can
I Love because I am Love
Love abundant Love all around Me as I sit here
Gratefulness overruns me as a river after Autumn showers
I invite you to follow me into the woods
Where the animals are at play
Where the trees are happily providing you with shade
The place so in alignment so effortlessly being
In this moment everything just is
It ebbs and flows with ease
The ego and mind are at rest
Releasing all feeling of need and unquenched longing
Just Be Here Now
Even our breath has not ceased when we are sleeping or not minding it
It is completely ok to release yourself from the search for meaning
You are the meaning You are the purpose You are the goal
You have already been created with everything you will ever need
We are already created in perfect design
Remember you are a child of God remember your birthright
You are the intimate connections between atoms a dancing
relationship of microscopic components
a purposeful conversation within the microcosm of divinely aligned
organisms
Let the electricity flowing through your body hold you together as you
relax and be gentle with yourself
In truth you are both the Light and the shadow
You are pure energy enjoying this moment with yourself
Know that you are more than enough
You are overflowing with Unconditional love
You are vibration at perfect pitch All is exactly how it is right now
Remembering this is the doorway to a new world of possibilities A new
day given to you in unconditional love

PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF THIS EARTH

At this very moment for the people and nations of this earth
May not even the names disease famine war and suffering be heard
But rather may pure conduct merit wealth and prosperity increase
And may supreme good fortune and well-being always arise

When you look for peace then peace lies within you
When you search for peace then it is not hard to find
When you want to keep peace alive then you allow white doves to fly
over you
When you make peace with others then the whole world lives in your
heart
When you let peace be in the world then you live in a wonderful world
When you open the door for peace the peace welcomes you
Let peace prevail in our wonderful world

Introduction
World Day of Prayer 2017
Welcome to World Day of Prayer 2017 This year our Prayer Chaplains urge
you to find Peace in the Midst of a world in turmoil from natural disasters
political rhetoric climate change and discrimination of people of all kinds
Affirmative positive prayer is the foundation of Unity Charles and Myrtle
Fillmore co-founders of Unity turned to affirmative prayer to heal Myrtlersquos
tuberculosis which was the AIDS of her day That healing grew into a
movement that has spread to 270 countries World Day of Prayer began as a
student project that has become celebrated in Unity centers globally and live
streamed from Unity Village MO at wwwunityorgwdop
Our alcoves are lovingly created by our Unity North ministries and core
intention teams Each year our volunteers express their visual and energetic
manifestation of each Teamrsquos intention and purpose As you sit in silent prayer
in each alcove allow your mind to relax Take as much time as you need
When walking the labyrinth allow others the time and space they need as well
Some people like to begin the labyrinth with a question and slowly walk to the
center repeating the question as a meditation They sit for a while in the
center in the Silence Then they wind their way out of the labyrinth and allow
the answer to the question to come into their mind There is no right or wrong
way to walk the labyrinth just the way that is best for you
Unity North Prayer Chaplains are available to pray with you individually The
Chaplains are recognizable by their purple stoles We are here to serve you
As you leave this Holy Space there is a guest book near the entrance We ask
that you please sign the book and share with us any thoughts or comments you
have We hold that you carry the experience of Peace in the Midst with you
Thank you for coming We hope you will return for Sunday services or

The Global Mandala
The Global Mandala was conceived by Unity North Atlanta Artist-in-
Residence Sonia Osio over 1 frac12 years ago Cardboard circles were sent
to all 50 states and many countries on all the 7 continents Participants
were asked to draw their ldquoHope for Humanityrdquo on the circles and return
them A small version of the Global Mandala was part of World Day of
Prayer 2016
Response was overwhelming Over 4000 circles were received Sonia is
proud to say her dream was achieved News coverage of the project
has been on NPR local news channels and social media
Now the Global Mandala covers the floor of the Sanctuary of Unity
North Atlanta during World Day of Prayer 2017 Please go upstairs and
experience it For more information go to wwwglobalmandalaorg or

The Peace of Wild Things By Wendell Barry When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my childrens lives may be I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water and the great heron feeds I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief I come into the presence of still water And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light For a time I rest in the grace of the world and am free

Suicide Awareness
Spirit of the Living God that dwells in and through all creation
we call on your presence to remind us that
although we grieve the physical loss of our loved one
their spirit lives on forever
Remind us that they are as close to us as our next breath
that we need only open our hearts to feel hear and experience their
presence
We are strengthened with this knowing and blessed by the time we
shared with our loved one
We give thanks for the time we shared with them on this journey
knowing that they blessed us and so many others
with the Light of their Being
As we seek Peace in the Midst of the pain of our loss
we also acknowledge the possibility to allow more love into our life
We live with an open heart bolstered by the love of Eternal Indwelling
Oneness
knowing that we are never alone
We acknowledge that as we continue to allow ourselves to love
we receive more love in return and we keep the Light of our loved one
burning brightly
as our Light burns ever brighter and brighter
And so it is Amen

Like storm clouds darkening the sky
We can respond with infinite choices
Will our choice worsen a situation or
Can a simple thought heal the world
Thank you Divine Mind for the moment of surrender when
We release our need to be right and
We choose to be the ray of light shining through the storm
Amen

I Love because I can
I Love because I am Love
Love abundant Love all around Me as I sit here
Gratefulness overruns me as a river after Autumn showers
I invite you to follow me into the woods
Where the animals are at play
Where the trees are happily providing you with shade
The place so in alignment so effortlessly being
In this moment everything just is
It ebbs and flows with ease
The ego and mind are at rest
Releasing all feeling of need and unquenched longing
Just Be Here Now
Even our breath has not ceased when we are sleeping or not minding it
It is completely ok to release yourself from the search for meaning
You are the meaning You are the purpose You are the goal
You have already been created with everything you will ever need
We are already created in perfect design
Remember you are a child of God remember your birthright
You are the intimate connections between atoms a dancing
relationship of microscopic components
a purposeful conversation within the microcosm of divinely aligned
organisms
Let the electricity flowing through your body hold you together as you
relax and be gentle with yourself
In truth you are both the Light and the shadow
You are pure energy enjoying this moment with yourself
Know that you are more than enough
You are overflowing with Unconditional love
You are vibration at perfect pitch All is exactly how it is right now
Remembering this is the doorway to a new world of possibilities A new
day given to you in unconditional love

PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF THIS EARTH
by His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche
At this very moment for the people and nations of this earth
May not even the names disease famine war and suffering be heard
But rather may pure conduct merit wealth and prosperity increase
And may supreme good fortune and well-being always arise

This poem is by Ravine Sathasivam
When you look for peace then peace lies within you
When you search for peace then it is not hard to find
When you want to keep peace alive then you allow white doves to fly
over you
When you make peace with others then the whole world lives in your
heart
When you let peace be in the world then you live in a wonderful world
When you open the door for peace the peace welcomes you
Let peace prevail in our wonderful world

PEACE IN THE MIDST
Rev Richard Burdick
I return to the mountain I return to the ocean
I return to the womb of creation where every part of my existence
became me
Here in this place of power darkness stillness and pure being
I find peace
I find innocence and I find the eternal goodness at the center of it all
Here I escape the bonds that have held me captive
Here I am free
Free from thoughts actions and circumstances
Free from condition opinion or history
I am enveloped by the calm assurance that all is well
Once in this place
Peace is no longer an experience
It is the very essence of who I am
I not only observe it I express it
I breathe it I live it I am it
Peace in the midst
I am the eye of the storm the light in the darkness
The stillness in the center and the cradle of a new reality
For myself and the world
This is more than just a moment it is an essential awareness
Not merely a fleeting escape it is an eternal state of being
I AM the mountain I AM the ocean
I AM the womb of creation
I AM peace in the midst
Board of Directors
Just The Two Of Us
Love often expresses as a paradox
From within and from with out
But regardless of your point of view
Gods umbrella always covers you
Affirm your truth or your need
Then trust spirit to proceed
To deliver in the midst
The peace you seek your wanted bliss
The paradox may seem a conflict
But two is really one
So whether within or out
Gods umbrella covers the one

Let us each remember this God is in this house

Be guided by the Spirit that dwells Within each of us
May we always remember The faces of those we are here to serve
And the love each one is seeking May we honor every path
And protect each personrsquos right To live in peace as they were created
As we move about our day Let us quietly be guided

I Love because I can
I Love because I am Love
Love abundant Love all around Me as I sit here
Gratefulness overruns me as a river after Autumn showers
I invite you to follow me into the woods
Where the animals are at play
Where the trees are happily providing you with shade
The place so in alignment so effortlessly being
In this moment everything just is
It ebbs and flows with ease
The ego and mind are at rest
Releasing all feeling of need and unquenched longing
Just Be Here Now
Even our breath has not ceased when we are sleeping or not minding it
It is completely ok to release yourself from the search for meaning
You are the meaning You are the purpose You are the goal
You have already been created with everything you will ever need
We are already created in perfect design
Remember you are a child of God remember your birthright
You are the intimate connections between atoms a dancing
relationship of microscopic components
a purposeful conversation within the microcosm of divinely aligned
organisms
Let the electricity flowing through your body hold you together as you
relax and be gentle with yourself
In truth you are both the Light and the shadow
You are pure energy enjoying this moment with yourself
Know that you are more than enough
You are overflowing with Unconditional love
You are vibration at perfect pitch All is exactly how it is right now
Remembering this is the doorway to a new world of possibilities A new
day given to you in unconditional love

PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF THIS EARTH
by His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche
At this very moment for the people and nations of this earth
May not even the names disease famine war and suffering be heard
But rather may pure conduct merit wealth and prosperity increase
And may supreme good fortune and well-being always arise
Singles Ministry
This poem is by Ravine Sathasivam
When you look for peace then peace lies within you
When you search for peace then it is not hard to find
When you want to keep peace alive then you allow white doves to fly
over you
When you make peace with others then the whole world lives in your
heart
When you let peace be in the world then you live in a wonderful world
When you open the door for peace the peace welcomes you
Let peace prevail in our wonderful world

PEACE IN THE MIDST
Rev Richard Burdick
I return to the mountain I return to the ocean
I return to the womb of creation where every part of my existence
became me
Here in this place of power darkness stillness and pure being
I find peace
I find innocence and I find the eternal goodness at the center of it all
Here I escape the bonds that have held me captive
Here I am free
Free from thoughts actions and circumstances
Free from condition opinion or history
I am enveloped by the calm assurance that all is well
Once in this place
Peace is no longer an experience
It is the very essence of who I am
I not only observe it I express it
I breathe it I live it I am it
Peace in the midst
I am the eye of the storm the light in the darkness
The stillness in the center and the cradle of a new reality
For myself and the world
This is more than just a moment it is an essential awareness
Not merely a fleeting escape it is an eternal state of being
I AM the mountain I AM the ocean
I AM the womb of creation
I AM peace in the midst

Just The Two Of Us
Love often expresses as a paradox
From within and from with out
But regardless of your point of view
Gods umbrella always covers you
Affirm your truth or your need
Then trust spirit to proceed
To deliver in the midst
The peace you seek your wanted bliss
The paradox may seem a conflict
But two is really one
So whether within or out
Gods umbrella covers the one

The Peace of Wild Things By Wendell Barry When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my childrens lives may be I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water and the great heron feeds I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief I come into the presence of still water And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light For a time I rest in the grace of the world and am free

I Love because I can
I Love because I am Love
Love abundant Love all around Me as I sit here
Gratefulness overruns me as a river after Autumn showers
I invite you to follow me into the woods
Where the animals are at play
Where the trees are happily providing you with shade
The place so in alignment so effortlessly being
In this moment everything just is
It ebbs and flows with ease
The ego and mind are at rest
Releasing all feeling of need and unquenched longing
Just Be Here Now
Even our breath has not ceased when we are sleeping or not minding it
It is completely ok to release yourself from the search for meaning
You are the meaning You are the purpose You are the goal
You have already been created with everything you will ever need
We are already created in perfect design
Remember you are a child of God remember your birthright
You are the intimate connections between atoms a dancing
relationship of microscopic components
a purposeful conversation within the microcosm of divinely aligned
organisms
Let the electricity flowing through your body hold you together as you
relax and be gentle with yourself
In truth you are both the Light and the shadow
You are pure energy enjoying this moment with yourself
Know that you are more than enough
You are overflowing with Unconditional love
You are vibration at perfect pitch All is exactly how it is right now
Remembering this is the doorway to a new world of possibilities A new
day given to you in unconditional love

PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF THIS EARTH
by His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche
At this very moment for the people and nations of this earth
May not even the names disease famine war and suffering be heard
But rather may pure conduct merit wealth and prosperity increase
And may supreme good fortune and well-being always arise
Singles Ministry
This poem is by Ravine Sathasivam
When you look for peace then peace lies within you
When you search for peace then it is not hard to find
When you want to keep peace alive then you allow white doves to fly
over you
When you make peace with others then the whole world lives in your
heart
When you let peace be in the world then you live in a wonderful world
When you open the door for peace the peace welcomes you
Let peace prevail in our wonderful world

The Peace of Wild Things By Wendell Barry When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my childrens lives may be I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water and the great heron feeds I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief I come into the presence of still water And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light For a time I rest in the grace of the world and am free

presence
We are strengthened with this knowing and blessed by the time we
shared with our loved one
We give thanks for the time we shared with them on this journey
knowing that they blessed us and so many others

We live with an open heart bolstered by the love of Eternal Indwelling

I Love because I can
I Love because I am Love
Love abundant Love all around Me as I sit here
Gratefulness overruns me as a river after Autumn showers
I invite you to follow me into the woods
Where the animals are at play
Where the trees are happily providing you with shade
The place so in alignment so effortlessly being
In this moment everything just is
It ebbs and flows with ease
The ego and mind are at rest
Releasing all feeling of need and unquenched longing
Just Be Here Now
Even our breath has not ceased when we are sleeping or not minding it
It is completely ok to release yourself from the search for meaning
You are the meaning You are the purpose You are the goal
You have already been created with everything you will ever need
We are already created in perfect design
Remember you are a child of God remember your birthright
You are the intimate connections between atoms a dancing
relationship of microscopic components
a purposeful conversation within the microcosm of divinely aligned
organisms
Let the electricity flowing through your body hold you together as you
relax and be gentle with yourself
In truth you are both the Light and the shadow
You are pure energy enjoying this moment with yourself
Know that you are more than enough
You are overflowing with Unconditional love
You are vibration at perfect pitch All is exactly how it is right now
Remembering this is the doorway to a new world of possibilities A new
day given to you in unconditional love

PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF THIS EARTH
by His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche
At this very moment for the people and nations of this earth
May not even the names disease famine war and suffering be heard
But rather may pure conduct merit wealth and prosperity increase
And may supreme good fortune and well-being always arise
Singles Ministry
This poem is by Ravine Sathasivam
When you look for peace then peace lies within you
When you search for peace then it is not hard to find
When you want to keep peace alive then you allow white doves to fly
over you
When you make peace with others then the whole world lives in your
heart
When you let peace be in the world then you live in a wonderful world
When you open the door for peace the peace welcomes you
Let peace prevail in our wonderful world

Suicide Awareness
Spirit of the Living God that dwells in and through all creation
we call on your presence to remind us that
although we grieve the physical loss of our loved one
their spirit lives on forever
Remind us that they are as close to us as our next breath
that we need only open our hearts to feel hear and experience their
presence
We are strengthened with this knowing and blessed by the time we
shared with our loved one
We give thanks for the time we shared with them on this journey
knowing that they blessed us and so many others
with the Light of their Being
As we seek Peace in the Midst of the pain of our loss
we also acknowledge the possibility to allow more love into our life
We live with an open heart bolstered by the love of Eternal Indwelling
Oneness
knowing that we are never alone
We acknowledge that as we continue to allow ourselves to love
we receive more love in return and we keep the Light of our loved one
burning brightly
as our Light burns ever brighter and brighter
And so it is Amen

We release our need to be right and
We choose to be the ray of light shining through the storm
Amen

In Peace everlasting

I Love because I can
I Love because I am Love
Love abundant Love all around Me as I sit here
Gratefulness overruns me as a river after Autumn showers
I invite you to follow me into the woods
Where the animals are at play
Where the trees are happily providing you with shade
The place so in alignment so effortlessly being
In this moment everything just is
It ebbs and flows with ease
The ego and mind are at rest
Releasing all feeling of need and unquenched longing
Just Be Here Now
Even our breath has not ceased when we are sleeping or not minding it
It is completely ok to release yourself from the search for meaning
You are the meaning You are the purpose You are the goal
You have already been created with everything you will ever need
We are already created in perfect design
Remember you are a child of God remember your birthright
You are the intimate connections between atoms a dancing
relationship of microscopic components
a purposeful conversation within the microcosm of divinely aligned
organisms
Let the electricity flowing through your body hold you together as you
relax and be gentle with yourself
In truth you are both the Light and the shadow
You are pure energy enjoying this moment with yourself
Know that you are more than enough
You are overflowing with Unconditional love
You are vibration at perfect pitch All is exactly how it is right now
Remembering this is the doorway to a new world of possibilities A new
day given to you in unconditional love

PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF THIS EARTH
by His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche
At this very moment for the people and nations of this earth
May not even the names disease famine war and suffering be heard
But rather may pure conduct merit wealth and prosperity increase
And may supreme good fortune and well-being always arise
Singles Ministry
This poem is by Ravine Sathasivam
When you look for peace then peace lies within you
When you search for peace then it is not hard to find
When you want to keep peace alive then you allow white doves to fly
over you
When you make peace with others then the whole world lives in your
heart
When you let peace be in the world then you live in a wonderful world
When you open the door for peace the peace welcomes you
Let peace prevail in our wonderful world

PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF THIS EARTH
by His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche
At this very moment for the people and nations of this earth
May not even the names disease famine war and suffering be heard
But rather may pure conduct merit wealth and prosperity increase
And may supreme good fortune and well-being always arise
Singles Ministry
This poem is by Ravine Sathasivam
When you look for peace then peace lies within you
When you search for peace then it is not hard to find
When you want to keep peace alive then you allow white doves to fly
over you
When you make peace with others then the whole world lives in your
heart
When you let peace be in the world then you live in a wonderful world
When you open the door for peace the peace welcomes you
Let peace prevail in our wonderful world

----Maya Angelou
Outreach Ministries
As we open our servant hearts may we open to the truth of our being
which shines immaculately as we give May our words bless as we
speak as we serve may our acts be the reminder to love our brother as
our Self and to see the face of Christ in each one we meet

Peace can come with a smile
A kind handshake
A warm hug

I find Peace in my soul
And find it easier to
Be Peace in the World
