In response to the pandemic and in accordance with the instructions of the State of Minnesota, the Unity Church building will
​remained closed until further notice. Visit this page for information about online programming, pastoral care, worship services, and more.

Welcome!

Unity Church-Unitarian is a vibrant intergenerational congregation grounded in the history and heritage of liberal religion.  Our shared ministry enlists the whole church family in living out the values we proclaim. ​Unity Church-Unitarian honors the ambiguity and uncertainty in the search for greater truth, meaning, and equity. In all we do, we strive to embody wonder, open-hearted engagement, and courageous action. ​The mission of Unity Church is to foster transformation through a free and inclusive religious community that encourages lives of integrity, service, and joy.

Virtual Welcome Lobby and Coffee Hour

Each Sunday, church members, friends, and newcomers are invited to join a virtual Zoom welcome lobby before the service and coffee hour check-in after the service. The welcome lobby will open at 9:30 a.m. with time to pop in, share a smile, and offer a quick hello. The lobby will remain open during the 10:00 a.m. service but all attendees will be muted and the service will not be shown in the virtual lobby. You will need to watch the service in your browser on the same or a different device.

​After the service, the lobby will stay open for a virtual coffee hour for more intentional conversation and sharing. Depending on the number of participants groups might be split into smaller break-out groups for conversation. This time together will be supported by staff and volunteers and is an opportunity to explore the possibilities of virtual connection available to the congregation.

To participate in any or all of these offerings (greeting before the service, seeing each other during the service, virtual coffee hour after the service), please refer to the link in our weekly Sunday service email. If you do not currently receive our weekly Sunday service emails, please CLICK HERE to be added to the list.

If you have questions about Zoom and how to get connected to the online platform, please click here for general instructions or email unity@unityunitarian.org before Sunday morning.

There'll be singing in that land ...
