Annual Meeting Is January 4th
The Annual Meeting for Fiscal Year 2010-2011 will be held this year on Wednesday, January 4, at 5:45 p.m., just prior to our 7 p.m. “White Stone Ceremony” in the Sanctuary. According to church by-laws, church members elect our Board members via ballot (which must be received at or before the Annual Meeting). This year we have three openings for Board membership. Following are the current candidates who are running to fill those openings.

Prior to my first service at Unity, I was a lost soul in terms of
my spiritual commitment. I knew what was missing from my
life was a strong spiritual foundation, and it wasn’t until June
2007, when a friend invited me to attend Unity of Phoenix, that
I found a place in which I feel personally connected with my
community and my own spirituality.
Each year during the “White Stone Ceremony” I challenge
myself to find that one word that will guide me in the coming
year: something that will allow me to give more of myself to
Unity and that will challenge me to be a better person. Having
been a member for more than four years now, I noticed a
pattern was developing each time I chose a word: I was being
asked to give more of myself to Unity of Phoenix. For me the
voice that resonated within my head was that of John F.
Kennedy when he said, “Ask not what your country can do for
you, but ask what you can do for your country.” I continually
ask myself, “What more can I do for Unity?”
This is why I am here now. I want to take another step toward
giving of myself to help Unity be the best that it can be. With
the Vision 2020 campaign getting underway, I can find no better
way to serve my fellow congregants than to take a
more active role by serving on the Board of
Trustees.
My pledge is to serve tirelessly and faithfully
on the board so that my efforts — along with those of the entire board and
ministry — will allow Unity of Phoenix to
not only meet the expectations of our
congregants, but also leave everyone
who attends here with the feeling
of being part of something
special.

I am passionate about the future of Unity of Phoenix. So many
wonderful leaders have brought us to this exciting time in our
history. We are launching a new vision for our ministry, and I
don’t know that there could be a more exciting time to serve
this ministry.
I served on the board of trustees at Unity of Phoenix from
2008-2010, and as president from January 2009 to January 2011.
During that time, I served as chair of the strategic planning
committee and of the Vision 2020 committee. I am currently
serving as chair of the “Vision 2020: Building Our Dream” Campaign. I also served as an usher/greeter for five years.
I am president/ower of Park Place Real Estate Services, Inc.
I have been in the real estate industry for 26 years. Prior to
moving to Phoenix, I was an owner of Coldwell Banker Everitt
and Williams in Fort Collins, Colorado.
My service outside the church includes: chairperson of the
Financial Stability Committee for United Way; board member
for First Western Trust Bank; former mentor for Fresh Start;
former board member and president of the American Cancer
Society; former board member and president of the Fort Collins
Board of Realtors; former board member and
president of the Fort Collins Convention
and Visitors Bureau.
