100 Years and Beyond: Leave a Legacy for the Future

Over the last seven years, you and other friends of Unity have helped breathe new life into Unity Village. Together, we’ve:

  • Transformed a 50-year-old Activities Center into the stunning R.D. Goppert Event Center 
  • Created the largest stone paver labyrinth in North America 
  • Restored historic homes into welcoming Airbnbs 
  • Upgraded technology so Unity can keep pace in a fast-changing world and continue serving those who turn to us for prayer and inspiration 

Because of your generosity, Unity Village has become a place where visitors feel peace, joy, and the presence of Spirit—a place where they know they have come home.

Now, as we look to the next 100 years, we invite you to help us expand this legacy.


Capital Campaign Priorities 2025/2026

The R.D. Goppert Event Center

This new state-of-the-art space is alive with retreats, workshops, concerts, and celebrations. By closing the final gap in renovation costs, future revenue will flow directly to support Silent Unity®, Daily Word®, Outreach, and the care of Unity Village.

The Doves in Flight Tribute Wall offers a lasting way to honor loved ones, share a message of hope, or place your family’s name at the heart of this sacred space. Click here to find out more!

Unity Archives & Digital Museum

The Unity story is a gift to the world. Through our partnership with HistoryIT, treasures from the Fillmores, Eric Butterworth, and more are being preserved and shared online. Upcoming exhibits—from rare audio recordings of Truth teachers to James Dillet Freeman’s inspiring poems—will ensure Unity wisdom lives on for generations.

Joy Wyler Memorial Elevator

Rev. Joy Wyler dreamed of a more accessible Unity Village. By building this elevator, we honor her legacy and open the Rose Garden and Central Courtyard to all who come seeking beauty and peace.

Peace Chapel

For 60 years, the Peace Chapel has offered a quiet sanctuary for prayer. Now, it needs restoration—fresh furnishings, repairs, and ADA-compliant doors—so it may continue to welcome every seeker of silence and Spirit.

Fillmore Chapel

The first chapel at Unity Village, where Charles and Myrtle once taught together, is both a historic treasure and a living place of prayer. Plans include accessibility updates, mural restoration, and modern upgrades so it remains a beacon of inspiration.

Johnnie Colemon Cottage

Honoring Rev. Dr. Johnnie Colemon, this restored historic home will serve as a sacred Airbnb, offering visitors a stay infused with Unity history and spiritual legacy.

Together, We Carry the Legacy Forward

Unity Village is more than buildings and gardens. It is a living testament to Spirit at work in the world. With your help, we can preserve its sacred history, expand its welcome, and ensure future generations experience the same sense of peace, joy, and homecoming you have felt here.
