Our Mission Statement: Unity of Kona is a spiritual ohana filled with love, prayer, faith and humor empowering ourselves and others. We are a blessing to the world!

Our Vision Statement: Unity of Kona loves God and serves people.

Unity of Kona, formally Unity Church of Kona-Kohala, was founded in 1987. We are a member in good standing with Unity Worldwide Ministries (Pacific Rim Region). In 2012, we celebrated our 25th anniversary in the Kona community! We offer Sunday service, Sunday school, weekly prayer and meditation circles, a lending library, and workshops in an air-conditioned setting. Our spiritual leader is Rev. Deb Knowles - Licensed Unity Teacher.

What is Unity?

Unity, a spiritual organization within the New Thought movement, was founded by Charles and Myrtle Fillmore in 1889. Unity is positive, practical Christianity. We recognize the importance of serving all people in spiritually and emotionally caring ways. Our ministries and outreaches are free of discrimination on the basis of race, gender, age, creed, religion, national origin, ethnicity, physical disability, and sexual orientation. Our sincere desire is to create spiritually aware organizations that are nondiscriminatory and support diversity. Visit Unity's main website at www.unity.org for more information.

What are Unity’s basic teachings?

• Heaven is not a place, but a state of consciousness; we create our own heaven and hell here and now.
• We all have an innate capacity to know God through direct experience.
• The “Christ” is that part of God that is in every person. There is a spark of divinity within all people, just as there was in Jesus.
• Prayer works.
• We are here to set a positive example and be a role model for others.
• We are here to make the world a better place.

Unity’s 5 Basic Principles:

1. God is the source and creator of all. There is no other enduring power, God is good and present everywhere.
2. We are spiritual beings, created in God’s image. The spirit of God lives within each person; therefore, all people are inherently good.
3. We create our life experiences through our way of thinking.
4. There is power in affirmative prayer, which we believe increases our connection to God.
5. Knowledge of these spiritual principles is not enough. We must live them.

Please join us for our regular service every Sunday at 10am!
