A Course in Miracles (ACIM)

A Course In Miracles (ACIM) is a unique spiritual self-study program designed to awaken us to the truth of our oneness with God and Love.

  • Would you like to feel peaceful even in difficult circumstances?
  • Would you like all of your relationships to be loving?
  • Would you like to feel more connected to your Source?

These are the goals of A Course In Miracles (ACIM). They are achieved by learning to heal all of our relationships through the inspired practice of forgiveness.

Unity Church of the Hills has a very active Course in Miracles community, and all are welcome, whether you attend Unity Church of the Hills or not. All study groups and classes are facilitated or taught by long-time Course students, and you may join at any time. Come join fellow like-minded students on the path to remembering the spiritual beings that we really are, and always have been!

Men’s Fellowship Network (MFN)

The Men’s Fellowship Network weekly gathering is an open and sacred coming together of men where we explore our male spirituality and connect with one another on a spiritual level. We go deep at times, but we also have plenty of laughs and great fellowship. Check us out. We usually have 18-20 gents come each week. No commitments are required. Come when you can.

You will find that this is a safe, contemplative circle, where no one is judged or someone tries to fix you. It is about men with men learning how to connect and integrate head and heart. It is a gathering and not a meeting, and we have topics of conversation and not discussion. In our gatherings, it’s not unusual to have present over a thousand life years of experience from which each of us can learn. You will find this to be a friendly circle that does not discuss outside topics and issues, but rather a place to go within.

Where: Room 131
When: Mondays 7:00-8:30 pm

The MFN gathers weekly both in-person and via Zoom.  For more information or to join the email list contact Steve Mayer at samayer@yahoo.com

Wholehearted Women's Group

The Wholehearted Women’s Group is a group of women of all ages who come together each Monday evening to encourage and support each other.  We are an insightful group of women who enjoy spending time together to share ideas, prayers, and activities.   On any given Monday you might find us discussing a book we are reading as a group, crafting, sharing life experiences, engaging in community service, and, on occasion, sharing a meal with one another.  There is no judgment; it is a safe place to be yourself.  We are not defined by or limited to one point of view.  We are walking/living our Spiritual path and we come together Monday nights to share the journey.

Where:  Unity Oaks Room 203
When:   Mondays  7-:00 – 8:30 pm

Learn to Meditate with Dr. Dan Stasiak

Meditation is a systematic practice of calming yourself in body and mind, leading to greater self-awareness. Meditation is the liberation of the mind from disturbing and distracting thoughts and feelings. “Learn to Meditate” is a one-time class. Dan Stasiak, D.C., goes through the steps of “Superconscious Meditation” from the Institute of the Himalayan Tradition.

Meditation is the finest tool for physical, mental, and spiritual growth. It is the instrument for the art of living and being. This workshop teaches you how to meditate. It systematically guides you through the essential first steps for entering states of inner awareness. You will learn the “how” and “why” of meditation postures, the importance of breath and how to regulate it, and how to calm your mind while expanding your awareness. All the basics of the science of meditation are taught in this class.  By the end of the class, you will be able to go through these steps at home and practice on your own. Wear comfortable clothing. Net proceeds benefit UCOH through this generous gift by Dr. Stasiak.
