talks about Unity Spiritual Center

Unity Spiritual Center is more than a member-owned place for events of a spiritual nature. We are a warm and friendly community of like-minded people who come from highly diverse backgrounds and differing economic, ethnic and sociological groups. Like-minded does not mean that we accept fixed dogmas or religious beliefs. We like to say we are spiritual, but not religious. Our community is richly blessed by inclusion of people from virtually every faith-based organization. Our center is open to all who come, regardless of belief system, sexuality, age or physical or emotional limitations. We are a healing and teaching center dedicated to lead people to be their best self. We have no altar calls or baptism rituals.

We offer church services for adults and Sunday School for children from babies to high school seniors. Many of our youth tell their parents that they like coming to the "happy church." The youth learn the same lessons as adults, including meditation, spiritual practices and practical life skills. Sunday Service lessons and adult Unity classes are taught from both a historical and a metaphysical interpretation perspective.

We love good music in our Sunday Services and offer choir, concerts and other special performances. Our colorful flower gardens, meditation garden, and two outdoor labyrinths enhance our active appreciation of nature. What good be more soul-enhancing than an hour meditative walk on our 90 Ft labyrinth in the oak grove.

In our church services and Unity classes, we are offer a meditation and Bibleoriented curriculum enriched with science, positive psychology and practical methods for living a better life. We put a strong emphasis on the teachings of Jesus and other Masters.. Some classes are book based, usually chosen from our extensive bookstore. Throughout the year special programs are offered with home-based groups studying the same materials as taught on Sundays..In recent years we studied the Law of Attraction, the teachings of Gandhi, Prosperity, and Healing.

We host a plethora of healing modalities and many practitioners who offer healing services, as well asa rich and varied diet of life enhancing classes and groups such as Meditation, Yoga, Mandela and Chakras; We some host twelve-step groups and several A Course in Miracles groups. We support several programs that help people in the surrounding cities and villages..

Unity Spiritual Center is a growing, ever-expanding spiritual community, currently building a large expansion which will double our physical space and increase our opportunities to be in service to those who are seeking a spiritual life.
