Unity Atlanta Church Youth and Family Ministry (YFM)
Dedicated to promoting life-long qualities that support a child’s spiritual and emotional development, as well as create a foundation for mindful living!
Our Focus:
to remind our youth that God is within us, around us, and everywhere present… and that we are loved unconditionally—no matter who we are, or who we love.
Our Purpose:
to support parents seeking a practical approach to spiritual concepts and mindfulness for their children, as well as themselves.
Our mission:
to provide our children with a safe, nurturing, loving sacred space, while learning and applying spiritual principles that can be used in everyday interactions. Teachings are presented from a practical viewpoint that encourages one to expand their existing understanding of their own God experience.
Our teachings empower the youth to live to their Divine Potential.

Blessed & Becoming: Living the Beatitudes from the Truth Within
Blessed & Becoming: Living the Beatitudes from the Truth Within is a 9-week youth and teen series exploring the Beatitudes in fun, real, and meaningful ways.
The Beatitudes come from The Bible (Matthew 5), where Jesus shares teachings about what it truly means to be “blessed.” In Unity, we understand these teachings as more than statements—they are invitations into a way of living from the truth within you.
Rather than focusing on outside circumstances, Unity teaches that being blessed is about recognizing the presence of God within us and choosing thoughts, attitudes, and actions that reflect love, peace, and truth.
Each week, our Unikids, Uniteens, and YOU (Youth of Unity) will explore how to live these teachings in everyday life—through engaging stories, hands-on activities, and meaningful conversations.
Come grow, connect, and discover the power within you!
