Sunday Morning Services:

The schedule for Church services has changed during the current health crisis. 
We ask all congregants to please attend Church each week until further notice by live streaming the 11:00 am service on YouTube or by viewing afterward on our YouTube Channel.
The 9:00 am service will not be held.
Only the Guest Speaker or Minister, the musicians, the platform assistant and sound tech person will be in the Sanctuary for the service. We ask that everyone else attend remotely each Sunday and until further notice.
As stewards of the Church, the Board and Rev. Roger will prayerfully discern the next steps to be taken to ensure that we all stay deeply connected to one another even as we go through a time of social distancing.  Please stay tuned! We welcome your input and ideas .
The 6:00 pm OneSong service is held every 2nd and 4th Sunday evening at 7pm.

[Here is our “normal” info on Sunday Services, which we will return to as soon as the current crisis is behind us:

In the fall, winter and spring we hold two morning services each Sunday at 9:00 and 11:00 am.
On Sunday evenings, we hold our “OneSong” multifaith music and meditation service at 6:00 pm.
During the summer (from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend inclusive) we hold just one service at 10:00 am.
The services include inspiring music, a time of guided meditation and an uplifting message by the Senior Minister or a Guest Speaker.

Find more information about our services including special events and upcoming guests on the Services Page.

Youth Education Classes for elementary age children is not currently offered. We hope to reinstate it in the near future.

Nursery Care is available during the 11:00 service. Children under the age of four may be taken to the nursery prior to the start of services and picked up at the end of the service.

Unity Bookstore is open before and after Sunday services.]

    I need to let you know I no longer live in the Albany area. We moved to Myrtle Beach SC. Please remove my name from your mailing service. I wish everybody the best as the future unfolds.
    Thank You.

      Shannon,

      Thanks for your persistent interest. Sorry it’s taken awhile to respond, but it’s hard to say at this point if and when Metaphysics 1 will be offered again. It’s a class that Rev. Crystal has offered only once so far, and there isn’t currently a plan to run it again in the near future. But it’s not out of the question, especially if there appears to be interest.
      Many blessings,
      Roger Mock

    Rev Crystal, I just want to let you know I am listening. I work every Sunday and unable to attend live. I am so grateful for the recordings on the website so that I can hear the message of love and hope you so beautifully deliver! Thank you & Namaste. ?

      Hi,
      I was looking forward to listening to the service today, but unfortunately the sound quality was very bad so I couldn’t understand what was being said. It echoed a lot and the volume of the speakers wasn’t high enough. I hope that you can do something to improve that because there are a lot of people who could really benefit from this right now. Thank you for all you do. I miss Unity since I moved to the mid- Hudson Valley and plan to make a trip up once we are all out of our homes once again. ?

        Karen,
        Thanks for your note. We’re very sorry about the sound quality this morning and will be working hard to improve it for future services. Many blessings to you.

    Hi guys,
    I sent a tithing check a couple of weeks ago in the mail, along with a jazz cd for Dennis. Did you get it? I haven’t seen it in my bank statement.
    Thanks! Jen

    Hi,
    I am enjoying your on-line Sunday services. They help me to feel connected.
    Can you send me a zoom link for today’s town hall? I realize I might be asking too late but thought I would try.

    Sure wish someone could come up with a flag for car or bumper sticker promoting peace and unity in these times instead of nasty political junk incouraging all the craziness…maybe a way to incorporate some income for the church?
