Unity puts into practice a true ecumenical approach.
Unity sees itself as a vehicle for instruction, inspiration and prayer support for spiritual seekers regardless of their religious affiliation … as an ever-expanding expression of love, light and peace. Therefore, it freely shares its teachings and believes in the oneness and freedom of all people.”
The Association of Unity Churches
