“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in service to others.”
Volunteering as a Spiritual Practice
Volunteering is one of the fastest and most impactful ways to put spiritual principles into practice. Unity Fort Worth thrives thanks to those who serve in roles, both big and small. Volunteering is a way of claiming ownership in your spiritual center and giving back to the community. Some opportunities may take only a few minutes every Sunday, others a couple of hours each month. Whatever it is, we welcome your gifts and talents and are grateful for your role in our community.
Building Community
Volunteering is also about building community, which is the number one reason why and how spiritual communities thrive and sustain themselves over decades. Belonging to a team, a committee, or a special interest group allows everyone to feel involved and derive meaning from their activities and Presence. In small ways, we give; in large ways, we receive.
Become Part of Our Community
With over 12 teams and over 40 roles in which to serve, we offer a broad range of opportunities for everyone to get involved in our community and find joy in doing so. At Unity Fort Worth, finding Joy in Service is our highest priority for everyone willing to give of their time and talent. That Joy is what makes our community special as we continue to be a safe haven for everyone who seeks acceptance in how they express their spirituality.
Are you ready to become part of our community and spend some meaningful time together?
