The Unity Center

Perhaps you have found yourself conflicted when attending other churches: drawn in by the sprit but turned off by a message that excludes everyone who does not follow the doctrines of that particular church.
If so, then the Unity Center may be the place for you. The Unity philosophy holds that there are seeds of truth in all the great religions. The atmosphere at Unity Center is one of optimistic inclusion and tolerance. And the music is great.
The minister, Wendy Craig Purcell is one of the best speakers I have ever experienced; her lessons come from everyday life, the Old and New Testament and other religions such as Buddism. I usually leave the Center feeling uplifted.

Really? Is it church? That label can bring so many «uncomfortables» for us that we loose growth of our direct personal connection with the divine.
As a gay male giving up on all churches for 11 years and visiting Unity after spending 16 years in a «gay church», I have never felt more connected to our Creator and more alive as I grow through Rev. Wendy’s messages over my last 3 years.
Prepare to be… MORE; aware, genuinely loving, giving, connected, nourished, lighter, and prosperous! Leave behind judgement, separation, burden, & years of damage by dogma.
It’s SAFE to BE here and you are WELCOMED on your personal journey as it crosses the UNITY path. Connect with your higher power without the filter of man-​made religion. Visit, close your eyes, and feel the difference.

Shortly after reading the book Power vs. Force in 2004 I was drawn to The Unity Center, by what seemed at the time to be an unknown visceral sensation. At the time I was an atheist, and was not extremely fond of the churches I had attended in my youth. Yet after reading Power vs. Force I became curious about spirituality. A concept that I wasn’t introduced to while growing up. I walked into The Unity Center unaware of what I would find. As I explored the facility I found a book shop and to my surprise there was Power vs. Force sitting on a shelf. At that moment I felt an awakening to a new paradigm. That there must be a divine presence that binds everything, and that led me to the church in order to begin a journey of spiritual growth. Since then I have attended off and on (mainly missing due to work, but always wishing I could attend more). I have attended other churches with beautiful productions that have been very well organized, however I have yet to find another church that speaks to me the way The Unity Center has. Wendy has an unbelievable talent. She knows how to captivate & convey powerful messages with ease and grace. In addition to the epic Sunday services the church offers many other activities that are hard to find at most other churches. Such as workshops of all sorts, retreats, classes, yoga, meditation, horseback riding at their own ranch, courses, clubs, and more! Not a single person that I’ve brought as a guest has been disappointed and all have been moved by the congregation. As a non-​denominational church we welcome all, in effort to UNITE. Do us all a favor and come see what we have to offer at The Unity Center.

Awesome message today on inner peace. What would it be like to create a daily «be» list rather than a «to do» list? I would be joyful, peaceful, relaxed, fulfilled, and completely content no matter the circumstances.

Growing up in Unity as a child has beautifully shaped the way I perceive and Live life now as an adult. I see, feel and live in abundance because I Know God is the Ultimate Provider, and I go within to find the answers I seek.
Unity and The Unity Center of San Diego have instilled in me the Truth principles Jesus and ancient masters truly taught without dogma — that each of us is a Light unto the world when we align with the Christ within.
Reverend Wendy is amazing, and I feel at Home whenever I’m in the sanctuary of The Unity Center. Everything, from the beautiful meditations to the soul-​felt music to the lovely bookstore and staff, make up the high vibrational experience that The Unity Center continues to bless others with as well as flourish in.
I am so grateful for the empowering soul of Wendy Craig Purcell, the overflowing love of this church and its beautiful congregants!

When I need a spiritual reset, I try to make it to Unity. I feel blessed to have close access to such a broad minded, nonreligious group to enjoy Sunday service with. It’s nondenominational and emphasizes principals from many spiritual works and teachers. They even have child care and Sunday school for all ages and are equipped to handle my triplets. :)

Looking to find some peace in your week? Come to The Unity Center. 15 – 20 minutes of the service is meditation. Awesome! The message is always empowering, uplifting, and engaging. You can get your spirit charged up for a great week… and enjoy some inspiring music, as well.
It’s part college/​theological lecture, part self-​improvement, and part spiritual community. I feel like a better person because I’ve been going. Having left the Catholic Church years ago, it’s a good feeling to be among others who value spirituality… without the judgment.
Check out their website, or better yet, come by for an hour, or so on Sunday! Services are at 9 and 11… if you enjoy dynamic singing and a bit more of a crowd… I suggest 11! There’s a bit more energy at that service… but both are valuable and worthwhile. (And both have the wonderful music, it’s just the more people at the 11am service really rock the house!!)

I love this place!!! Reverend Wendy Craig-​Purcell the Senior and Founding Minister @ the Unity Center offers another way to find sprit. Wendy eloquently speaks to your heart and makes you think about things in a different way. I recommend checking out Unity if you are looking for something different in a place of worship and want to be connected to your inner spirit.

«What is Unity?
A worldwide movement founded in 1889, Unity is first – and foremost – a spiritual practice and a way of life. Unity has its philosophical roots in Christianity but is not limited to or bound by those roots. Thus, in Unity, we actively seek, study and respect the perennial wisdom and universal truths found in all the world’s religions. We believe there is one God, called by many different names and found through many different paths.»
