Youth | Kids & Teens

At Unity, we believe spiritual teachings must equip Generations Z and Alpha with practical tools for their everyday lives. Our teen group offers a positive, practical approach to real life and self-empowerment through mindfulness, service to others, and leadership development.

We recognize that today's youth navigate a world filled with information and diverse expressions of identity. At Unity, we create a space where all are welcome, accepted, and affirmed, regardless of where they are on their journey or how they identify.

Our mission is to empower young people to find the good in themselves and others, build meaningful connections, and develop skills for spiritual and personal growth. Together, we celebrate the unique ways they discover their place in the world.

Join us in creating a future generation of mindful leaders who serve with love and live with purpose.

There is a higher power that exists everywhere, all the time. That power is good. Some call this power God. Some call it by other names. If God is good, there is always goodness in the world, even when it's hard to see.
If that higher power exists everywhere, it must also exist inside of humans. Therefore, humans must also be good. Each human has the choice to act from that place of goodness. When they do, we say they are in alignment with God.
Our thoughts are powerful. What we think about, we start to believe and act on, and our beliefs and actions shape our experience of the world. When we pay attention to what we think about, we can choose to think thoughts that help to improve our experience.
Prayer and meditation are tools to help connect to the good within so that we can destress, focus, and bring that goodness into our thoughts, actions, and lives.
While thoughts and prayers are important, we must also follow through by acting in a way that shows our goodness. We can choose to help others learn to show their good too.

On Sunday mornings, you can get to our classrooms through the door in the back parking lot and follow signs for Unity in Greensboro.
All families start together in our UIG Sanctuary. When you walk up to the room, you'll see a table with a potluck breakfast and an iPad for check in. Teens can check themselvs in while children must be checked in by a parent/guardian. You'll meet Miranda, our Associate Minister, here and she'll guide new visitors through the check in process. From there, children and teens sit with their families through the opening of service. About five minutes in, the youth are blessed and follow the youth education team to their rooms down the hall.
For more information on what to expect within the actual lessons, visit the FAQs for the respective age groups.
At the end of service, parents/guardians pick up younger children in the classroom. High schoolers and middle schoolers with permission may sign themselves out. Permission can be granted through the annual registration form.
