Unity uses prayer and meditation to forge a stronger connection to God and to assert positive beliefs about desired outcomes.

Spirit of the Universe - As we witness the carnage of war, we affirm protection, healing, and comfort for those caught in the web of conflict; we affirm Divine Wisdom and Courage for the leaders whose decisions can bring a compassionate and speedy end to the destruction of life and property; and we affirm with conviction the belief that mutual respect can lead to permanent peace that allows Israelis and Palestinians to thrive and allow their children to grow together as friends.
