Mission

Advancing the movement of spiritual awakening and transformation through Unity, a positive path for spiritual living.

core ideas

God is absolute good, everywhere present.

Human beings have a spark of divinity within them, the Christ spirit within. Their very essence is of God, and therefore they are also inherently good.

Human beings create their experiences by the activity of their thinking. Everything in the manifest realm has its beginning in thought.

Prayer is creative thinking that heightens the connection with God-Mind and therefore brings forth wisdom, healing, prosperity, and everything good.

Knowing and understanding the laws of life, also called Truth, are not enough. A person must also live the Truth that he or she knows.

Rainbows need all the colors present and in balance. Similarly, when we have the twelve powers present and in balance in our lives, we can achieve our highest good.

The twelve disciples of Jesus are each associated with a power. In addition, each power is associated with a color that represents its transformative effects.
