Celebrant Denise DeSimone
"Seventy Years Young. Twenty Years of Grace and Gratitude - And Still We Rise"

Unity, we teach that God is NOT up in the sky, handing out fates like lottery tickets.
God is the love within us, the wisdom that speaks when we’re still, the light that never goes out - even in hospital rooms, even in chemo chairs, even in the shadow of death.
Charles Fillmore once wrote, “Life is not a matter of years. It is a matter of consciousness.”
I found that to be true. Every single day I got up and said, “I choose life.” Not just survival... Life, with all its messiness, its miracles, and its mysteries.
My greatest lesson: People get you through and love is all that matters.
