Unity Church Prays With You
We affirm the TRUTH of whole and perfect life,
health, guidance, and supply
for each person we hold in prayer.
Thank you, God, for answered prayer. Amen.

• Online Guided Meditations
We create our life experiences through our way of thinking. One way to align ourselves with Spirit is through meditations. Go to unity.org/prayer/silent-unity-meditations and select a guided meditation from the list. Topics include Meditations for Everyday Living, for Healing, for Inner Peace, for Guidance, for Love and Comfort and more.
• Affirmative Prayer
When most people think of prayer, they think of asking God for something.
Not so in Unity.
Unity uses “affirmative prayer.” Rather than begging or beseeching God, this method involves connecting with the spirit of God within and asserting positive beliefs about the desired outcome. Affirmative prayer is the same method of prayer Jesus taught when he said, “So I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (Mark 11:24).

Favorite Unity Prayers
THE PRAYER FOR PROTECTION
During the Second World War minister and poet James Dillet Freeman was asked to create a prayer for our men and women in the armed services. This is the prayer he created for them to say, in whatever situation they found themselves. He later published a shorter version that is used in Unity Churches everywhere.
Prayer for Protection
The Light of God surrounds me.
The Love of God enfolds me.
The Power of God protects me.
The Presence of God watches over me.
The Mind of God guides me.
The Life of God flows through me.
The Laws of God direct me.
The Power of God abides in me.
The Joy of God uplifts me.
The Strength of God renews me.
The Beauty of God inspires me.
Wherever I am, God is!
THE PRAYER OF FAITH
This prayer by Hannah More Kohaus (1745 – 1833) was a favorite of Myrtle Fillmore’s. Kohaus was an English religious writer and philanthropist.
The Prayer of Faith
God is my help in every need;
God does my every hunger feed;
God walks beside me, guides my way
Through every moment of this day.
I now am wise, I now am true,
Patient and kind, and loving, too;
All things I am, can do, and be,
Through Christ the Truth, that is in me.
God is my health, I can’t be sick;
God is my strength, unfailing, quick;
God is my all, I know no fear,
Since God and Love and Truth are here.
Please, God, I beg you to reunite me with my little Valentina very soon. I don’t want to live without her. Amen.
Love, Leah
When I first came to Unity of Albany it was because a long time acquaintance suggested that I come and experience the Community. I did. I returned.
Four years later I participated in a New Member guidance class. I became a member on Dec. 16, 2018. (It is your choice to be a member, many attend our Community coming from diverse religious backgrounds and all are welcome.)
So consider me a new acquaintance who is inviting you come and experience UNITY.
Please pray for Catherine Williams continuing recovery from her most recent spinal surgery to remove a tumor.
