Welcome to Unity Church of Raleigh!








Our Sunday Celebration Service
Join us Sunday, February 15, for Rev. Ellen Barron's talk, "Radical Compassion".
​
In today's world, we're often caught up in fear, anger, and the overwhelming chaos we see in the news. This raises a big question: how can we genuinely practice compassion in such a fragmented society? I'm inviting you to join me this Sunday as we dive into this topic. We'll explore how radical compassion starts with recognizing our shared humanity and understanding that we’re all interconnected. To embrace this state of compassion, we can begin by cultivating mindfulness and self-awareness. This way, we can acknowledge our emotions without letting them take over. Engaging in acts of kindness and fostering open conversations are essential steps to move beyond our fear and anger. When we shift our focus from division to inclusion, we not only improve our well-being but also help heal a fractured world.
It’s often thought that compassion and love are just soft sentiments, but that’s not the case. They require real effort and action. If you're ready to embrace compassion, be prepared to take action! I am looking forward to exploring this with you!
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.
Dalai Lama
