Our God is love, our race is human, and our religion is oneness.

    

Youth & Family Ministry


Unity Church of Austin is committed to offering a creative and positive educational program for its children, teens and parents — a program that inspires, instructs and provides a solid spiritual foundation for their growth as families.

Our classes and instructors create environments that provide security, friendship and fun. Materials and curriculum are age-appropriate and provide opportunities for discussion, sharing, personal experience and life application. Prayer and meditation, which are important to learning to communicate with God, are a vital part of the curriculum.


 
 
 

"Our mission is not to entertain children, but to call them out. To be 'always entertained' is to be dwarfed and dependent. To be 'called out' is to follow the harmonious law of the soul’s unfoldment. Who meddles with the rosebud? What fingers are deft enough to pry open that marvel of folded beauty? We are wise enough to leave it alone to follow the glad law of its own unfolding, but our children! Have we dealt as wisely with these buds of marvelous possibilities?  Have we always remembered that they, too, must quicken and unfold through the innate law of their own genius?”

— Myrtle Fillmore, Co-founder of Unity
  



OUR STAFF

Our Staff consists of a Youth Education Director, Nursery Leader, and a number of loving volunteers. These dedicated people are constantly learning how to best serve our children. They teach from a spiritual understanding that each soul, child or adult has an individualized pattern of soul growth. This program is a process to assist children, teens and families to learn and grow together. Truths are emphasized through shared experiences, storytelling and creative expression (art, music, etc.). Teachers listen to the real stories that students are telling with their action and their energy and address the real needs revealed so that students may discover many options and help create their own solutions.
