Unity Southeast Kansas City proudly supports and fully includes the LGBTQIA+ community in all aspects of ministry and community life. The organization has a formal, comprehensive diversity and inclusion statement that prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity and actively welcomes all individuals. 

Key aspects of their stance include:

  • Inherent Worth: Unity teaches that everyone is a divine expression of God and possesses inherent sacred worth, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

  • Inclusive Ministries: LGBTQIA+ individuals are welcomed as members, visitors, and participants in all church activities.

  • Leadership and Ordination: The Unity movement trains, credentials, and ordains LGBTQIA+ ministers and licensed teachers. It is estimated to have one of the highest per capita rates of LGBTQIA+ individuals in leadership roles of any religion.

  • Marriage Equality: Unity ministers perform marriages for any two committed people, regardless of gender or sexual orientation, and honors all committed relationships.

  • Social Justice: Unity is committed to human rights and social justice for all people and partners with organizations like the National LGBTQ Task Force.
