- UNITY’S 5 BASIC PRINCIPLES, $25.00.
Created by Rev. Diane Venzera, Great
Lakes Children’s Consultant. A Bible based
curriculum using Truth Principles for
children 5-13. Contains 4 lessons for each
Principle with activities rotating through
the multiple intelligences (linguistic,
mathematical, spatial, musical/rhythmic,
interpersonal, etc.)
- Lumindorf, $20.00 Created by Rev.
Diane Venzera, Great Lakes Children’s
Consultant.
13 lessons that were inspired by the Harry
Potter series of books. The books talk about
magic, potions, spells and good and evil. A
closer look reveals that Harry's journey is
amazingly similar to our own Spiritual
journey. I have taken certain experiences
that Harry goes through and given them a
Unity interpretation. As we look beyond the
appearance in these events we are able to
apply the learning and gifts to our own
lives.
- In the Forest of Finding Out, $25.00
. Created by Rev. Diane Venzera 24
lessons that were inspired by the topics in
the book, "The Simple Truth." This
curriculum is an exploration of metaphysics
and it uses Bible for most of its lessons. A
sampling of the topics explored include:
What is God, Prayer & Meditation, Where is
Heaven?, Denials & Affirmations, Faith,
etc...Good for Vacation Bible School.
