I received the final printed copy of the Association of Unity Churches International Year Book (2008) with this information from its director James Trapp. In order to control costs and expedite information, the Association of Unity Churches is converting its communications to E Mail as soon as possible. Considering our demographics here at Unity of Santa Maria it may take a while to get 50%. But it would cut costs and expedite information plus:

1. A click of the mouse would pass on to your family or friends our

   Newsletter or encourage them to sample our services and or activities.

2. Mailing/printing costs are cut in half or more.

3. It saves time and is more environmentally friendly.

4. Color can be added at no additional expense.

Unity Chapel of Light will continue to produce, print and snail mail the newsletter to all who wish to receive it the way it is now. But, if you are computer-internet inclined, please let us know and we will switch you to e mail over the next months. And remember, we will never share your e mail address with anyone outside of Unity Chapel of Light, EVER! Switching is as easy as just e mailing me at the Church at unitychapeloflight@verizon.net from the e mail address you would like to receive the newsletter. This avoids anyone having to type all of the e mail addresses by hand.

Prayers & Blessings Always,

Pastor Jim Schrotel
