Speaker for This Sunday

January 18, 2026

Rev. Sophia Falke
Unity of Kona’s Minister of Record
Covenant with God
In this sacred Unity experience, we consciously enter into a covenant with Divine Mind/God through prayerful intention. Congregants will write a Letter to God, affirming the good they choose to manifest in 2026, aligning thought, feeling, and expectation with Spiritual Law. From that same place of Truth, they will then write a Letter from God, a reflection of the Divine Idea already established in consciousness, celebrating its fulfillment. Congregants will seal their letters in a self-addressed envelope, and Unity of Kona will mail them back in six months as a reminder that what is held in spiritual consciousness, aligned with faith and action, must express in form.
January 2026
Theme:  Claiming the Abundant Life

Affirmation: I am open & receptive to the Abundant Life.
        January begins not with striving, but with releasing. Through sacred practices such as the White Stone Ceremony and Letters from God, you open yourself to divine revelation, guidance, and a renewed spiritual identity. As you listen inwardly and trust what Spirit reveals, abundance consciousness awakens – not as something you chase, but as a way of seeing and living. This month invites you to receive who we truly are, what we are being called into, and the abundant life that naturally unfolds from alignment with Spirit.
 Kealohilani  (k-ah-lo-hee-LAH-nee)
   (A Hawaiian word meaning “the brightness of heaven” or “heavenly glow.”  Kealohilani is often used to describe the beauty of the sky at sunrise or sunset – the radiant light that connects the ocean and heavens in perfect harmony.)

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

Congratulations!
 Gale Ziccarelli
     You’re January’s Unity of Kona Team Member Of The Month!
      Mahalo, Gale, 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!
       Gale brings food for fellowship brunches, helps decorate for the Holidays, headed up the Bake Sale during our most recent Circulation Day, and is a greeter at Sunday services. Her willingness to offer needed support and share her time, energy and talents is greatly appreciated.
And Gale is one of the authors in an anthology entitled ‘Your True Power, the Key to Your Amazing Life.’  She has donated a copy to the UoK library for all to check out!
Gale you are a bright and shining light and we are grateful for your spirit of Aloha and loving service!  We love you, Gale!
Please Help With Our Potluck Brunch and Office Needs!
 Currently we need paper napkins and white letter-size copy paper! 
 Let’s all take a turn! 
        After the service every Sunday, at 11:00am, we have a potluck brunch upstairs in the fellowship area. It’s always a great time to meet new-comers, visit with friends, check out a book from the library, and enjoy a delicious brunch! 
       There are several ways everyone can help with our fellowship brunches! You can sign up to bring a favorite dish to share – the signup sheet is located above the left end of the food table in the fellowship area upstairs. For those who don’t cook, but want to contribute, we can always use packaged snacks, fresh fruit and veggies, cheeses, cookies and crackers. We love our weekly fellowship time and our ono brunch makes it even more special! Mahalo in advance for helping provide the items that are needed!
