Unity is a multi-generational ministry, and we are happy to offer our message of love, light, joy, hope, and peace to persons of all ages. Our Youth Ministry is an opportunity for children and teens to explore and nurture the spiritual aspects of their lives with one another in a safe space.
Unity provides a strong spiritual foundation for children’s lives. We:
- Behold all children as whole and perfect expressions of God
- Empower children to fulfill their divine potential
- Teach children to meditate and pray
- Invite children to experience a loving God
We practice universal Truth principles as a way of life! As Unity co-founder, Myrtle Fillmore, wrote:
“Our mission is not to entertain the 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.”
Our young students are lovingly encouraged to engage in and utilize their natural creative ability to co-create a lasting educational experience. Age Groups and Class Structure
As of the 2026-27 school year, we are offering two age-appropriate experiences for spiritual exploration and discovery:
UniKids (Pre-K through 5th Grade): Creative, interactive sessions that introduce concepts through stories, art, crafts, and music. Uniteens & YOU (6th-8th Grade; 9th-12th Grade):Uniteens engage in group sharing, prayer, meditation, and age-relevant spiritual discussions.
The YOU, or Youth Of Unity, is an international peace organization within the Unity Movement, designed to empower high school students to become leaders – through self-awareness, inward focus via the practice of affirmative prayer, and increasing mindfulness of the world around them, giving back through sacred service (volunteerism) and attending retreats with other YOUers from across the globe, which are called “Rallies.” (Photo taken at the 2026 Great Lakes Eastern Subregional Mini-Rally, hosted by Unity of Columbus.) NOW IN OUR FOURTH YEAR! This year, we are offering a new curriculum, “Seeds Of Spirit,” created by Rev. Dr. Kristine L. Pass.“Seeds Of Spirit” is a program designed to empower children and teens to find Presence, Purpose, and Peace, using Unity / New Thought principles. Through stories, songs, games, and activities, youth will discover, develop, and demonstrate tools and practices that will help them navigate the human experience as they grow.
Your child will explore spiritual principles and timeless Truth, in a fun, safe environment!

“Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs. Truly I tell you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it.”
Luke 18: 16, 17
