Unity of Pasadena is a spiritual community in Pasadena, California, living its core values of Creating Community, Living Love, Teaching Truth and Serving Spirit. It is part of Unity, a global, inclusive spiritual community that offers practical, uplifting resources to help people of all faiths apply positive spiritual principles to their lives.

Vision and mission

Unity of Pasadena envisions a world powerfully transformed through the growing movement of shared spiritual awakening. Its mission is transforming lives by living and sharing our inner truth of Divine wisdom, compassion and love using spiritual principles.

Sunday Celebration Service

Sunday service is at 10:30 am and lasts about an hour. Each service includes guided meditation with a short period of silence, and a message, or Truth Talk, that offers insight to foster spiritual growth and awaken you to your spiritual nature. Regular musicians and carefully chosen guest performers share their gifts, and the community describes the service as a warm, inclusive and welcoming environment. Children are welcome too.

Services are livestreamed, past services can be watched in the video gallery, and the Truth Talks are also shared as audio podcasts.

Prayer ministry

Unity was founded on prayer, and its co-founders, Charles and Myrtle Fillmore, were both healed through prayer. At Unity of Pasadena, prayer chaplains serve each Sunday by offering one on one prayer to anyone who asks for prayer support. They hold spiritual space, listen lovingly, pray from the heart and hold in confidence what has been shared. Chaplains also make monthly wellness calls to members, and prayer requests can be made in person or online, then held in prayer and forwarded to Silent Unity, the 24/7 prayer ministry.

Rev. Greg Dorst

Rev. Greg Dorst, J.D., CADC II, is Senior Minister. He gave up the practice of law in 1998 to turn toward non-profit work, obtained his Practitioner and Ministerial Licenses between 2004 and 2011, and was welcomed by the Board of Trustees as Senior Minister in February 2022. In March 2023 he completed the ordination program through Unity Worldwide Ministries.
