Welcome home to Unity!
 If
you're one of the “spiritual but not religious” people
who questions your childhood faith or is looking for something more,
this Web site may feel like a homecoming.
You may be one of the
millions of people who have embarked on their own spiritual path.
If so, you have just discovered a whole community of people like
yourself. It is Unity – a spiritual movement that honors all
paths to God; sees God as good and everywhere present; and affirms
the spark of Divinity in all of us. Unity also offers a positive,
practical, progressive approach to Christianity, regarding Jesus
as the great example rather than the great exception. Unity interprets
the Bible metaphysically rather than literally. Have you ever imagined
that the Bible could be the story of your own life? It is just one
of the tools available for powerful personal transformation. Join
us here on this website or at our church for services, classes events
and fellowship. We will be glad you did! Welcome home~
Whether
you are visiting us only through this website, have attended
our weekend celebration service, or discovered us through our classes
or workshops, we welcome you here. Wherever you are on your spiritual
journey, we will meet you there. We honor all paths to God, as we
know we are all unique expressions of God in our world. We respect
the truth wherever it is found, following specifically the truth
teachings of Jesus Christ, our teacher and way-shower. If you are
new to us please read on to learn more about Unity, our church and
our beliefs.
Above picture is Lynne Brown, Director of silent Unity, presenting a plaque of appreciation to our church for all our years of support. Rev. Stevens, our founding minister and Blair Tabor, our current minister, receive the plaque on behalf of our church.
