August 2025
 Theme:  Living from the Inside Out:
Reclaiming the Sacred Self

 Affirmation: I am a sacred expression of
Divine Mind, living from the truth
of Spirit, wisdom and love.

     This month we explore the divine architecture of our being and our relationship with Spirit. From the nature of the Trinity to the truth behind sin and evil, from the role of Jesus the Christ to our own threefold nature, we dive deep into Unity’s metaphysical teachings to reveal the spiritual truth of who we are and how we live from that Truth.

     (The Aloha Spirit in Hawaiian culture encompasses a deep-seated philosophy of love, kindness, and interconnectedness, extending beyond a simple greeting. It represents a way of life that emphasizes harmony, respect, and goodwill, fostering genuine connections and mutual regard. In essence, the Aloha Spirit is a way of life that encourages a positive, compassionate, and harmonious existence.)

Mahalo for Remembering to Tithe!
       As we all navigate the changing times, Unity of Kona continues to be grateful for your support through your financial donations and tithes. If you’re giving online, use one of the links below with your cell phone to make your donation. Each link has advantages and disadvantages.
          The QR code and link on the right were created to donate via PayPal’s Giving Fund. There is no processing fee with this charity donation option. But PayPal does NOT notify UoK of Giving Fund individual donations.
The other link is not part of PayPal’s Giving Fund, and PayPal donors are charged a fee for contributing. The advantage of this option is that PayPal notifies UoK monthly with the name of each donor and each amount. Please choose the option that best meets your needs.
Both the QR code at right and this link take you to PayPal’s Giving Fund option:
(NO donation fee, and NO notification to UoK)     https://bit.ly/unitykonapaypal
This link takes you to the Donation page of the UoK website, where you can donate using either a credit/debit card or PayPal. https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=D9898H4CZSYJ2
(PayPal DOES charge a fee, and DOES notify UoK with your name and donation amount)
    
Congratulations!

You’re August’s Unity of Kona
Team Member of the Month

     Mahalo, Chris, for your loving service to our Spiritual Center. We are blessed to have you at Unity of Kona! We very much appreciate your “can do” attitude to do whatever is needed to get the job done. 
       Chris proofreads each weekly UoK newsletter before its publication and brings food (and helps set up and clean up) for our fellowship lunches. She helps with Circulation Day events, puts holiday decorations up and takes them back down, is a Greeter and Usher for Sunday services, with husband Clyde, cleans the UoK facility monthly, plus always helps in any way she can to help with any undone task!

Oh! Don’t we wish we could clone our Chris?!

     Chris, your willingness to offer needed support and share your time, energy and talents is greatly appreciated. You are a bright and shining light and we are grateful for your spirit of Aloha and loving service!  We love you, Chris!
