"Let It Be" Sermon and Flower Power Bingo - Unity of Ventura - 6/25

Rev. Heidi Alfrey is the featured speaker at Unity of Ventura, Sunday, June 25. Services are at 10:00 a.m. in "The Chapel" at the Ventura Seventh-Day Adventist Church, 6300 Telephone Rd. in Ventura. This Sunday is the last in a series of talks entitled “The Summer of Love,” inspired by the spiritual messages in the lyrics of certain Beatles songs. As Rev.

Rev. Heidi’s topic this week is “Let It Be.” She explains: “This song was written by Paul McCartney right before Paul left the Beatles. It was a turbulent time in his life. He had a dream in which his mother, whose name was Mary, came to him and said; ‘It will all be alright, just let it be.’ His mother’s reassurance spurred this beautiful ballad and helped Paul with what was a major life transition. How many times when life feels turbulent do we want to rail against life, or have regret and try to change things? Often the best solution is to step back, look for the lesson, and give the situation over to God, practicing faith in the Divine Order of things. Sunday's message will focus on turning fear into faith, to ‘Let it Be’.”

Following the service there will be a special Pot-Luck brunch and “Flower Power Bingo” to which all are invited. For more information, call 805-653-1059 or go to www.UnityofVentura.org.

Music during the service will be provided by Smitty and Juljia, Ojai-based artists known for their uplifting sounds and beautiful vocal harmonies. At Unity of Ventura, all lifestyles, faiths, genders and ethnicities are welcome.

Services are also available on Unity of Ventura Facebook.
