Volunteer Ministries

BOARD OF TRUSTEES

The Board of Trustees is comprised of seven elected members and the
Minister, and serves as the governing body of Unity Church of Christ.
Members serve two- or three-year terms. Elections are held annually.

Meetings are generally on the third Wednesday of the month at 7 PM.


ACTION TEAM

This new ministry team was formed as a result of a congregational survey
identifying areas of need for further development. The Action Team has
initially chosen to address three areas of focus: developing and diversifying
Sunday Service music, providing increased opportunities for classes and
workshops, and developing new ways for members to connect within the
spiritual community.

Meetings are monthly. Call the church for more information.


UNITY WOMEN’S GUILD

The Unity Women’s Guild was established in 1952 with the purpose of
providing social and service activities to support the spiritual mission of the
church community. Featured events include an annual Christmas Tea on
the first Saturday in December (always sold out!), and a Spring Candy
Sale on the first Sunday in May. Funds raised have contributed to capital
purchases of new sound recording equipment, beautiful oak and beveled
glass doors, and numerous other contributions.


UNITY PRAYER CHAPLAINS

The Unity Prayer Chaplains participate in a comprehensive annual training
program to prepare them to serve our congregation through prayer. As they
maintain a personal prayer life, the Prayer Chaplains: acknowledge and
call on the presence of God; lovingly listen; pray from the heart and hold in
confidence what is shared. Prayer Chaplains are available on Sundays to
pray with anyone who requests prayer, and during the week via a telephone
call to the church. Each member also receives a monthly wellness call from
their assigned chaplain. The Prayer Chaplains contribute to our church
community by providing a confidential, calming, sacred space for prayer.


WORSHIP LEADERS

The Worship Leader sets a warm and welcoming tone for the Sunday
Celebration Service through spiritual preparation and prayer. During the
service, the Worship Leader shares from their heart through their Christ
presence and readings of the Daily Word and scripture. Worship Leaders
support the theme and the flow of the Sunday Services.



HOSTS, USHERS AND GREETERS IN SERVICE (H.U.G.S.)

Greeters
are the first faces you encounter when you arrive for church on
Sunday mornings. These warm and caring men and women welcome you,
direct families with children to the nursery and Sunday School classrooms
and guide you into the sanctuary. After the services, they connect with you
to answer any questions and invite you to return.

Ushers greet you as you enter the sanctuary and help seat you while
maintaining the quiet of this sacred space. Ushers also assist with the
offering collection in a consciousness of love and gratitude.

Hospitality is a spiritual gift and a ministry. It is the ability to welcome and
graciously serve the spiritual community by helping everyone feel welcome
and comfortable in our spiritual home. The role of the
Hosts is to create a
warm and inviting environment where people can connect with each other
after the service and share in enjoyment of delicious repasts.
