December 31st,
2009The Unity Church of Charlotte hosts its annual New Year's Eve Burning Bowl /Letters to God service on Thursday Dec 31st. If you've never been to a "burning bowl", the basic principle is that you write down all the things that have troubled you over the past year or bad habits you want to get rid of etc, and burn them away in the fire. Unity is a nondenominational church, so people of every faith are welcome. I have personally been to this church and let me tell you, they are the most welcoming and non-judgemental group you'll ever meet!
The Burning Bowl ceremony starts at 7pm at their
Arrowood rd. location. Click
