Who We Are Unity of Hagerstown began in September of 2007 as a study group. Meeting weekly to discuss such books as Deepak Chopra's "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success" and Neal Donald Walsh's "Happier than God", this group soon starting having regular Sunday Services as well. Through music, meditation and inspiring words we refuel our souls. Through coming together, we form community to '... go forth empowered to create a world that works for all. We believe there is One Power and Presence in the Universe, active within each of us. We believe that we can access this power through meditation and prayer and that as we align our minds with this divine power, we are able to co-create the world we want, both individually and collectively. This power may be called by many names, we choose to call it God and to believe it is good. The spiritual laws we study and the love that we experience as Spirit unite us as a community and deepen our spiritual practice. Unity of Hagerstown is part of Unity Worldwide Ministries.

About Our Spiritual Leader- Sandy Boyer, L.U.T. I grew up in a church, where I would count how many yawns I had during the sermon. As a young adult, I often said that nature was my church, as I hiked outside on Sunday mornings. While I was in my thirties, I found myself missing a spiritual community. I didn't know what I wanted exactly, just knew that I had to look. Ideally, I wanted something where the people were welcoming, where I could make a difference, a church that was all-inclusive, that had a lot of interesting classes and events going on, and that did not take themselves too seriously, or words too literally. I visited many churches, before finding a Unity church. Upon visiting Unity for the first time, I knew I had found what I was searching for. Like-minded folks coming together create a wonderful support system that helps out everybody. I became a Licensed Unity Teacher in November 2006, and am currently working on my ordination with Unity Worldwide. |
