Mission and Values
Vision
We are a vibrant, loving, prosperous spiritual community. We invite all to be partners in the world-wide expansion of spiritual understanding and consciousness.
Mission
We are an inclusive and welcoming spiritual community, transforming lives as we celebrate, honor, and affirm the divine presence in every person.
Core Values
- Oneness with God - God is spirit. As spiritual beings, our highest purpose is to know and express our oneness with God.
- Unconditional Love – We are one in Spirit. We offer hope and loving support in challenging times, and we celebrate our joys.
- Prayer and Meditation – We acknowledge the power of prayer and meditation to inspire, transform and to heal. Through affirmative prayer, we change our lives. Through meditation, we open ourselves to insight, intuition, and a conscious awareness of Divine Spirit within.
- Practical Use of Truth Principles – Universal Truth principles are positive, practical tools for use in daily life which, when applied consistently, produce predictable results. We use Truth principles to express our divine potential, and to achieve a deeper understanding of our spiritual nature as children of God.
- Lifelong Spiritual Learning – We are open to opportunities to deepen our understanding of our oneness with God. We recognize the value of continuing education as a means of enriching our spiritual experience.
- Inclusiveness – All people are accepted and welcomed here. We honor the holy nature of every person.
All Inclusive
Because we celebrate, honor, and affirm the Divine Presence in every person, we welcome you. Unity Christ Church is a community open and receptive to all who enter our doors. We believe everyone is here by divine appointment. We welcome you, and we welcome your thoughts and ideas, for they add to our discourse. We welcome your gifts and talents, for they add to our resources. We bless you and we affirm your wholeness, for we deeply value your presence in this community. Unity Christ Church is a community that is fully accepting of all people. We welcome everyone into our community without regard to age, abilities, race, religious beliefs, cultural background, gender, or sexual orientation. Welcome to Unity Christ Church!

Five Unity Principles
- There is only one Presence and one Power active as the universe and as my life, God the Good.
- Our essence is of God; therefore, we are inherently good. This God essence was fully expressed in Jesus, the Christ.
- We are co-creators with God, creating reality through thoughts held in mind.
- Through prayer and meditation, we align our heart-mind with God. Denials and affirmations are tools we use.
- Through thoughts, words and actions, we live the Truth we know.
