Celebrate the Advent Season with UNITY!
Welcome to the UNITY Advent Page, your one-stop shop for all things Advent! The Advent color is blue which conveys the season’s theme of preparation, waiting and, most of all, the hope in the arrival of Christ. We have a busy month of fun, fellowship and volunteer opportunities for everyone. Scroll down to see all UNITY happenings leading up to Christmas Day. Be sure to visit this page frequently for the latest Advent videos featuring UNITY families reading special passages to highlight the anticipation of the coming of our Lord.
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing “Glory to the Newborn King!”

Children's Play
Mark your calendars for December 13-14! Join us for our Sunday school Christmas program at all worship services. No one tells The Greatest Story Ever Told better than our kids! We have already begun practicing, so, parents, every opportunity you can get your child(ren) to Sunday School is appreciated! It helps them feel more comfortable, understand the songs/actions and the story's flow, so it’s memorable not only for you but especially for THEM! If you aren’t able to make your usual worship time some weekend, know that the program is the same for every SS hour, so popping into another hour some week is absolutely worth doing if you can!
Thank you!
