MOVIE NIGHTS in MAY
Unity of Santa Rosa
presents Spiritual Exploration Series
Thursday Evenings in March, 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm
Join us for community and thought provoking films to stimulate dialog and ideas.
Free admission, donations accepted, refreshments. We’ll spend the evening
exploring some provocative spiritual ideas.
May 3 ~ Thrive —Released in November 2011 and created by an heir of the Gamble family (Proctor & Gamble), you will either love or not love this controversial documentary that portends to explain the hidden agenda behind many of our social and economic systems today. Solutions to empower and liberate humanity are presented by contemporary thinkers like Deepak Chopra, David Icke, Steven Greer, Edgar Mitchell, Nasseim Harremin, John Perkins and Catherine Fitts.
May 10 ~ Fierce Grace —2001 documentary about Ram Dass, author of the classic bestseller Be Here Now, a book which sparked a generation’s quest for expanded consciousness and meaningful spirituality. The film weaves vivid archival footage from hippiedom's glory days with intimate glimpses of Ram Dass today, as he continues to remake his life since suffering from a stroke. Dass’ “dark night of the soul” provided him with a new passion: using this uninvited challenge as a tool for spiritual transformation, learning to help others face issues of aging, death, and dying.
May 17 ~ Hildegard von Bingen –In Portrait —Beautiful 2008 eclectic collection on the life and work of the 12th-century saint, Hildegard of Bingen—poet, prophet, activist, musician, artist, mystic. We’ll explore a segment of her operatic production Ordo Virtutem (Ritual of Virtues). The documentary will include a 45 minute conversation with Matthew Fox, a well-known scholar of the life and works of Hildegard. Also screened will be a dramatization of Hildegard’s life from the BBC featuring Patricia Routledge.
May 24 ~ The Happy Movie —What really makes humans happy? Roko Belic directs this 2011 exploration of happiness as the most valuable human emotion. Produced by Tom Shadyac. This movie is immensely uplifting, a surprisingly practical and down-to-earth documentary on the nature of happiness and how to increase happiness in life.
May 31 ~ Oh My God —Hugh Jackman, Ringo Starr, Seal, and a number of other celebrities and regular people offer their views on God in this 2009 documentary, hearing from a variety of religious persuasions including atheists, Muslims, Hindus, and Christians. Director Peter Rodger traveled to almost two dozen countries in his quest to discover what people around the world think about God in all his or her forms.

Love Poems from God
6-Week Class on Wednesdays
Begins Wed. April 11th, 6:30-8pm
Facilitated by Rev. Alyzsa Van Til
The writers, from what we called the “Dark Ages”, will inspire and feed us in our dark times. Each week we will read writings from Eastern and Western mystics whose poems are an intimate journal of discovering God within. They say such provocative things as, “Every prophet’s name is a key as is every heart full of forgiveness and love.”
The class will be using the book Love Poems from God: Twelve Sacred Voices From The East & West by Daniel Ladinsky. Please sign up for the class so that we can order enough books.
Rev. Alyzsa Van Til formerly taught Bible Interpretation at Unity School for Religious Studies, now known as Unity Institute. Since then she has served two churches in the West Central Region: Unity in Clearlake and Unity Palo Alto Community Church as Education Minister. She has recently retired as minister at Unity of Brookings, Oregon. In her retirement, Rev. Alyzsa is focusing on Mysticism in all religions where she has noted that all agree.
Vision Statement: Centered in God, we create a world of love, harmony, and abundance for all.
