Unity is moving forward with the project of building a new sanctuary.  Below is a history of the Capital Funds Campaign and Buliding Committee:

• Results of the Sunday, October 21, 2007, congregational vote regarding the formation of a Capital Funds Committee: 243 in favor of the formation of this committee, 12 opposed to the formation of this committee
• In response to that vote, a Capital Campaign Committee was formed.  Its members include:  Bill Hood, Co-chair; Robin Morris, Co-chair;  Dan Holloway, staff;  Vaughan Batchelor; Joe Bonds;  Steve Chase;  Emma Doughty;  Emelia Howell; Jessie Little;  Debbie McNair;  Bob Mobley; Lisa Swinford;  Scott Watson. 
• On Tuesday, May 6, 2008, the Capital Campaign Committee held a Leadership Dinner.  During the dinner and program,  current and past officers of Unity, as well as all other members of Unity, were invited to make a leadership commitment to the new sanctuary with a financial commitment.  These leadership gifts will lead the way toward a new sanctuary.  Please view a video of that May 6 program here . 
• What a celebration we had on Sunday, May 18, 2008, "Under the Tent" !   This spectacular service was full on inspirational worship,  beautiful music, and a tent full of people! The brass band added to the excitement as the crowd of members gathered under the tent to celebrate the goodness of our Lord!   Almost 500 people gathered for the Commitment Service on May 18.   Please view a video of that wonderful service here.
• As part of the May 18 worship service, members brought forward financial commitments for the proposed sanctuary project. Between the leadership commitment dinner and Sunday’s Commitment Service, 203 members plus 12 youth have submitted commitments. From all estimates of giving to date, the total is $2,576,621. This has been a tremendous response from our congregation. While we are very encouraged about the commitments so far, we recognize that the campaign is not over.
• Results of the June 1, 2008  Congregational vote on the proposed sanctuary building project: 294 Yes (in favor of this building project, 21 No (not in favor of this building project). 
• The Building Committee has been meeting since to advance this project.  The Committee has: contracted with an organ contractor for organ installation; hired a general contractor; has investigated stained glass; and is actively involved in other details of the building process.
• Estimated ground breaking:  spring 2009
• Estimated completion: late spring/early summer 2010
