We are a spiritual teaching and healing center that transforms lives, facilitating personal and collective awakening to our oneness with all of creation.

We are part of the greater world-wide Unity movement. Unity has published the Daily Word magazine for over 80 years, which contains a positive affirmation for every day. Unity has maintained a 24/7 prayer vigil continuously for over 100 years. Anyone can call 1-800-NOW-PRAY (1-800-669-7729) anytime for 30 days of continuous prayer support.

Unity Temple has provided spiritual guidance to Santa Cruz since 1928. We have been in our present location on Broadway, just off Ocean Street, since 1955. We attract possibility thinkers who understand the Law of Attraction. If you are already attracted to, or would like to learn more about the Law of Attraction, or just enjoy good fellowship, please come! You will find joy in meeting others who have been attracted to Unity principles.

Our Church

Unity Temple is a member of the Association of Unity Churches, a spiritual organization that includes churches and centers worldwide and is part of a “New Thought” tradition. Established over 100 years ago by Charles and Myrtle Fillmore, of Kansas City, Missouri, Unity began as a result of their personal healing through the power of prayer and positive thought. They chose the name “Unity” to depict the essence of Truth in all the world’s religions. Unity is “mystical” Christianity and welcomes people of all faiths.

Prayer, healing, prosperity, and joyful living are essential teachings presented in practical ways.
