The Association of Unity Churches International (now know as Unity Worldwide Ministries), at its annual conference in San Diego early in June 2010, installed our minister, Rev. David McArthur, as Chair
of the Board of Trustees (for a one year term), the highest elected office in this worldwide organization. Unity
Worldwide Ministries (UWM) is the governing body of the one thousand plus Unity ministries around the world.
Rev. David, who has been our minister since 2002, has followed his passion to understand the depth
of the human heart and Spirit. His purpose has led him to become a nationally recognized leader and speaker
in the science, laws and techniques of human transformation and heart intelligence. His love for Unity has encouraged him
to lead Unity toward an expanded vision of service in the world.
Rev. David began
his professional life as an Assistant Attorney General for the State of New Mexico, specializing in cases related to consumer,
environmental and land fraud law, which included briefing a case for the U.S. Supreme Court. Following
his reflection on what had been of value to his healing from the tragic death of his wife and strengthened him as a single
father, he was called to change course. He chose to follow the direction of his Spirit and entered the Unity ministerial school.
Since ordination in 1980, he has served as senior minister of three dynamic Unity ministries, in Montana, Washington,
and our Center as well working with the world renowned Institute of HeartMath®.
Rev. David has brought a heart-centered way of life to each of us at Unity Center in Walnut Creek.
With his guidance, we have been empowered and enriched in so many ways. We know that he will
do the same for Unity on an International level. We applaud
and affirm the recognition being given to Rev. David’s leadership by Unity Worldwide Ministries (UWM).
