SUMMARY:Sacred Silence Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Sacred Silence Meditation is a drop-in gathering that offers a gentle\, intentional pause at the end of your week. \nJoin Dr. Holly Hopkins Shah on Thursdays to go into the silence. The 30-minute meditation begins at 7:30 pm  (following 15 minutes of connection time at 7:15) and will include 20 minutes of silence.  Open to anyone who wants to set down the noise of the week and rest in stillness for a while. Perfect for anyone who feels the pull toward the quiet or is curious about silent meditation vs. guided. \nWhat to expect\n– The evening begins with a few minutes of connection to help you release the busyness you carried in.\n– From there\, a brief reading rooted in universal spiritual principles settles the room before the group enters into shared silence together.\n– This is not a guided meditation with prompts or instructions. The silence is open and spacious\, giving you room to simply be present and allow your own awareness to deepen.\n– The gathering closes with an affirmative prayer that brings a sense of grounded peace to carry with you into the rest of your evening. \nIf you have been feeling scattered\, overstimulated\, or disconnected from yourself\, this is a space designed with you in mind! \nWeekly on Thursdays\nTime: 7:15 PM to 8:00 PM – connection time @7:15pm\, meditation begins promptly at 7:30pm\nWith: Dr. Holly Hopkins Shah\nLocation: Unity Palo Alto (in person and online via Zoom)\nAddress: 3391 Middlefield Rd\, Palo Alto\, CA 94306\nPhone: 650.849.1100\nEmail: connecting@unitypaloalto.org\nZoom Meeting Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85399362903?pwd=b2hlWjhK3xaIuHeahRjWYrsUYhBius.1 \nThis event is open to everyone.

SUMMARY:Ecumenical Hunger Program Snack Pack Event
DESCRIPTION:Some of the most meaningful things we can do together take only a couple of hours. On Sunday\, October 11 from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM\, Unity Palo Alto is gathering in the YES Hall to assemble weekend snack packs for local school children in East Palo Alto. In partnership with the Ecumenical Hunger Program\, we’ll spend 90 minutes doing something simple and real: making sure kids have something to eat when school is not in session. \nThe event runs assembly-line style\, so everyone has a role and the work moves quickly. You’ll help pack bags with snacks and supplies\, and if the spirit moves you\, you can write a short personal note to slip inside. Snacks and drinks will also be available for everyone who comes out to help. \nThis is a great opportunity for families\, longtime members\, and anyone looking for a simple\, hands-on way to put their values into action. Children in East Palo Alto who might otherwise go without food on the weekends will be the direct beneficiaries of every bag we pack. \nThis event is free and open to everyone in the Unity Palo Alto community. RSVP online or sign up in the courtyard after Sunday service. \nDate: Sunday\, October 11\, 2026\nTime: 11:30 AM — 1:00 PM\nLocation: UPA YES Hall\nPhone: 650.849.1100\nEmail: connecting@unitypaloalto.org
