Founded at the turn of the 20th century by Charles and Myrtle Fillmore, Unity is based on spiritual healing using positive prayer and the practice of the presence of Spirit.
Unity of Gainesville was founded in 1975 and is dedicated to sharing a message of personal and planetary spiritual transformation.
Unity honors the universal truths in all religions and respects each individual's right to choose a spiritual path.
Unity is a positive, practical, progressive approach to Spirituality based on unchanging spiritual laws and principles. We do not preach a story (such as Christianity) but rather draw from the great stories and spiritual teachers of all time to convey the life changing power of putting spiritual truth into action.
We practice and demonstrate the power of positive prayer.
Unity is a center of spiritual light for people of the world. We are dedicated to letting this light shine so brightly that people become more aware of their spiritual nature and express it in their daily lives.
Unity of Gainesville is a member of Unity Worldwide Ministries.
Our name says it all… UNITY! We believe that ALL people are created with sacred worth and therefore we use timeless spiritual teachings, drawing from various traditions, ancient and contemporary, to show how the Spirit of Love connects and directs all life.
There is only one power and one presence in all the Cosmos. You might call this presence God, Higher Power, Source, All That Is, Spirit, Vibration, Light, Creator, Mystery, etc… it does not matter. This Unnameable Quantum Force is palpable. It transcends, infuses, expresses as, and emanates from all that exists and all that may exist.
Because this Force expresses as us, we are more than we appear to be. We are spiritual emanations of the Light.
We create our life experiences through our consciousness. Our thinking results in beliefs about what is possible. Beliefs lead to actions. We can change our lives by changing our thinking.
Prayer is a radical technology for changing our consciousness. It is not a way to change God's mind, but to align our own minds with Divine Truth.
Knowledge of these spiritual principles is not enough. We must live them.
