Senior Ministry

Would you like to join others for Christian fellowship?

The Senior Ministry at Unity (High Nooners) invites all senior members of the congregation who are at least fifty years old (55+) and also seniors in the community at large.  The High Nooners invite you to join them for Christian fellowship through entertainment, education and informal interaction.

No dues or formal membership cards are required. Individuals may attend as many meetings as they desire. They also may invite friends who are non-members of Unity.  An effort is made to provide at least four trips a year.  These are especially appreciate by those who can’t drive a long distance since transportation can be arranged.
