Fwd: Sanctuary A/C



 
Dear Unity members and Friends,
From your generosity, we have raised the money to install the new air conditioning for the Sanctuary, and it was installed this week by Peggy's husband, Ed.  Some interesting notes:  it was discovered that the old air conditioning unit was built in 1982, so it has served the church well for 30 years.  Ed thought it was a 5 ton unit, but upon examination and removal, discovered it was only 3 ½ tons.  The new Goodman unit is 5 tons, environmentally friendly, uses 410A refrigerant, has a SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating of 13 and a 10 year all parts warranty.  The total cost for the system was $1,934.12, with Ed donating his time, profit and expertise.
 
Thanks so much to all who contributed to this project.  Due to your generosity, the money was raised in two weeks!
 
Come join us this Sunday as we look forward to a cool Sanctuary for this and many Sundays to come!

Fwd: Prayers for Jane Smith

The following email is from Harry.  Thank you to Harry for letting us know.

Please keep Jane and her family in your thoughts and prayers.

Subject: KPCC Friends Meeting


Hello Pam,
Sky Kershner has asked me to serve as the liaison for KPCC (Kanawha Pastoral Counseling Center) to represent the center to area congregations.  One of our goals is to gather together a group of Friends of KPCC who will be informed of the service of the center including the programs offered to the congregations to support their ministry.  We also desire the Friends to support the center with their interest and their prayers.  Sky thought there might be some from Unity who would like to be Friends of KPCC.  The Friends of KPCC are invited to attend a quarterly meeting of one-and-a-half hours.  The next meeting will be this coming Tuesday, June19, at 9:30AM at the counseling center Room 310.  The center is located in the educational unit of First Presbyterian at the corner of Virginia St. and Leon Sullivan Way in Charleston. 

 Thanks.

Blessings,
David

Fwd: Christo Salva Mission Trip






On Jun 13, 2012, at 9:21 PM, "Lisa Beck" <fivebecks@frontier.com>

We are going on a Mission trip to Honduras July 15-27th if anyone from Unity would like to help with donations.  The majority of the money we each pay goes to buy the food and medical supplies that we help deliver to the outlying villages.  The cost of the two week trip is $910 per person.  The donations are tax deductible and they can  write their checks to Unity with  Christo Salva Mission Trip or just Mission Trip on the memo lines of their checks.  Like the Shoeboxes we fill at Christmas, we can also take small toys, toiletries, flip flops, etc.  to give to the Hondurans if you would like us to make a donation in that way instead.    We have $97 cash donations from the Hot Dog Sale in June that people donated and $125 from our announcement this past Sunday!            

   Thank you for your help in getting the word out,

Conner and Nate Beck

Fwd: Hot dog sale




Friends,
Let's keep the momentum going and schedule a hot dog sale for one Saturday each month during this summer and early fall.  I don't think Sandy and Danny are available this month, but I think we can still pull it off.  I think the only Saturday this month that's available is the 16th.  We are in such a good visible location and people coming up and down Bridge Road on Saturdays can see our banner and think, "Whoa, I'm hungry and I think I'll just stop and get hot dogs to take home to the family."

Let me know who's in to help.

Thanks,
Peggy

Fwd:

:
The following is from Peggy:


"Rick's surgery delayed until 6 this morning.  Just finished at 7:40.  Had laparoscopic antiseptic lavage.  No portion of colon removed.  Has a drain and will be in recovery for an hour or more, then to MICU.  Prayer for Protection and Unity family is powerful.  Still a long way from all clear but so much better than possibilities before surgery."
 
Please continue to keep Libby Barna and Rick Miller in your prayers for continued healing.
 
Thanks so much.
Peggy
