What we’re about
We are a loving, and inclusive spiritual community, that is part of the New Thought movement. Our principles are based on the teachings of Jesus, other spiritual masters, and our own inner wisdom. We embody and honor the Universal Truths found in all religions and spiritual traditions, and are truly "Interspiritual." In Unity, we nurture and cultivate an experience of the Divine presence in our daily lives. And in so doing, we see it reflected in our world as love, joy, peace, wellbeing and abundance. This is living from the inside out!

Book Study: The Connected Parent - Uncovering Your Peace by Kristen Oliver
Sundays - July 27 - August 24 | Potluck Family Lunch 12:30–1:00 PM | Book Study 1:00–2:30 PM
Childcare Provided!Parenting is one of the most beautiful—and most humbling—journeys we take. In the midst of busy schedules, daily stresses, and our deep desire to raise happy, healthy children, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or like we’re not doing “enough.”
The Connected Parent by Kristen Oliver offers a compassionate, transformative guide to help us shift old patterns, release guilt, and meet our children (and ourselves) with greater love, patience, and peace. This book isn’t about fixing—it’s about freeing ourselves from the unconscious beliefs that often lead to frustration and conflict. Through reflective exercises and rich discussions, we’ll learn how to turn parenting challenges into moments of connection, growth, and healing.
Why Join This Study Group?
Because you’re not alone. Because parenting isn’t meant to be done in isolation. And because real transformation happens in community. Plus—childcare is provided, and we’ll share a potluck lunch before diving into heart-centered conversation and learning together.
Led by Marea Kavanagh
A parent of two nearly grown children, Marea knows the joys and struggles of parenting firsthand. She describes this book as one that “transformed my relationship with my kids and gave me tools and skills I wish I'd learned earlier.” Her warm, down-to-earth presence creates a safe, open space where real insight and healing can happen. Marea is deeply committed to supporting other parents in finding freedom, forgiveness, and connection.
