| Prayer is considered the cornerstone
here at First Unity Church. Charles Fillmore, the co-founder of Unity, describes
prayer in The Revealing Word as "communion between God and man."
He further says that "It is the language of spirituality." Prayer
is the connection we make with God, whether we are sitting quietly in meditation
or speaking an earnest prayer in the middle of the night.
There is no right or wrong way
to pray: We each have our own individual relationship with God, and we connect
in ways that seem natural and satisfying to us. Some people talk to God throughout
the day, as one would a constant companion, and others set aside a designated
time for prayer. Still others use nature to recognize and feel the oneness of
creation.
Prayer Support at First Unity
We at First Unity Church want to support you on your spiritual
path. We offer prayer with our chaplains
before and after Sunday services and a prayer circle. Silent Unity
is available at all times.
Chaplains
We have trained chaplains who would love to pray with you!
A chaplain is always available before and after each Sunday service.
Look for the prayer chaplain badges to identify chaplains. See Chaplain
Program for details.
Prayer Circle
We have a prayer circle that prays for your request for 30
days. The prayer team prays for you and sends your prayer requests
to Silent Unity at Unity Village, where they also pray for you for
30 days. To make a prayer request, call the church office at 314-845-8540.
This team has a powerful prayer consciousness, and your prayer and
