Spiritual but not religious? We get that! Come check out our Mastermind meetings!

A men's or women's mastermind group is a small group where members provide mutual support, brainstorming and accountability to help each other achieve their personal goals. In our Mastermind meetings, we set our intentions for the month and explore ideas through the lens of Unity's metaphysical principles. We share experiences, learn from each other and develop strategies for success together.

Join us for a discussion of powerful spiritual techniques. You'll be glad you did!

Save the date for this special event!

This stand is the foundation of social action in the Unity movement, where “social action” identifies the actions we take for communal well-being. Our collective wisdom and creativity combine to bring freedom, peace, love, equity and justice into the world, in ways we cannot imagine when we are working in solitary and siloed ways. We are stronger together.

Our commitment to social action means we are committed to inspiring and encouraging each other in expressing our Divine Nature that we are Oneness individually and collectively. When we act from our Divine Nature, we boldly claim our Divine Identity moment by moment, choice by choice through the highest spiritual principles in everyday situations. It means we are called to make a difference in our larger
communities, to serve, awaken, support and partner with anyone who faces injustice and oppression.

Where there are divisions of opinions, beliefs and perspectives, Unity embraces and cherishes the diversity of gender, age, race, ethnicity, national origin, range of abilities, sexual orientation, gender identity, financial means, education, and political perspective. This commitment extends to caring for our earth home and environmental sustainability. Where there is fear of another, Unity strives to foster a climate of purposeful inclusion, standing for everyone’s right to create a life of their own choosing. Where there is oppression and hatred, we pledge to be an advocate for the well-being, respect and civil freedom of every human being.

Any action that seeks to discriminate against individuals or classes of individuals based on prejudiced, stereotypic profiles of national origin, class, creed, race, ethnicity, physical ability, sexual orientation or gender identity is in opposition to the core beliefs and values established by our founders.

We are stronger together when we recognize the interconnectedness and interdependence of all life. This is the foundation on which we stand when engaging in social action to demonstrate and live out our commitments to freedom, peace, love, equity and justice - our communal well-being.

ESTHER, along with the Wisconsin Council of Churches, is holding a rally on Palm Sunday, March 29, called the Palm Sunday Public Witness Walk and Rally. Held from 1:00-3:00, it is a Multi Church & Interfaith Rally in Houdini Plaza. Come join hundreds to voice our scriptural mandate to love our brothers and sisters.

Endorsed by the Wisconsin Council of Churches, Palm Sunday Path is a growing movement of faith communities that have decided now is the time for Christians to stand up to rising authoritarianism in a new way.

GRACE

With gratitude and humility, I welcome divine grace.

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift from God. --Ephesians 2:8
