Unity Eau Claire was a founding faith community member of Jonah in 2007. Reverend Sandra McKinney, Minister Emerita, is one of JONAH’s past presidents and represents Unity at JONAH’s Religious Leaders meetings. Many of Unity’s members have been involved in JONAH’s Task Forces.
Unity is a worldwide organization and Unity Eau Claire has existed for over forty years. Our beautiful facility, completed in 1996, located in a retreat-like setting in Northwest Eau Claire, provides a peaceful environment to explore spirituality. We welcome anyone regardless of where they are on their spiritual journey.
Our vision: Centered in Divine Love, we affirm a spiritually enlightened world.
Our mission: We awaken to Oneness with Divine Spirit and all creation through learning, praying, meditating, and manifesting love in action.
We welcome and embrace all people regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, physical ability, gender identity, or sexual orientation.
Unity’s five basic principles include the fifth principle: We do our best by living the Truth we know. We make a difference. This last principle guides our involvement in our community, and in our commitment to social and environmental justice.
The Unity Worldwide EarthCare ministry’s mission is to foster awareness of our spiritual oneness with the Earth, promote care of all creation, and to assist congregations in integrating Earth-oriented spirituality into their ministries. The EarthCare movement envisions Unity addressing the climate change emergency and moving society towards environmental justice to create a world that works for all beings. Unity Eau Claire’s EarthCare team participates in JONAH’s Green Team meetings and makes regular contributions to Sunday services and offers environmental information to Unity members. The team was recently awarded Unity Worldwide Ministry’s Green Star Award for its contributions to environmental education and activities at Unity in Eau Claire.
Unity is proud to be a member of JONAH!
