Sunday Celebration Services

Our wish is that your first visit to Unity of Traverse City will be one filled with joy and that offers you a very meaningful celebration of God in your life today!

Our Sunday celebration service which begins at 10:30 a.m. in our sanctuary. We have an average attendance of 45-50 people each week and our service length is typically one hour in length.

Unity of Traverse City is focused on being a positive path for spiritual living. As such, our services include an uplifting message with ‘take-aways’ for practical application in your daily life. In addition to the weekly lesson, our services always contain elements of prayer and meditation and are supported by inspirational, contemporary music. There is also time set aside to offer a friendly greeting to those around you.

Our in-person service now features a TV monitor with captioning for those who may have trouble hearing!
