• Our Unison Affirmation, repeated at the opening of every Sunday service:
  
  Love is the doctrine of this church.
  The quest for Truth is its sacrament and Service is its prayer.
  This is our great covenant:
  To dwell together in Peace,
  To seek the Truth in Love,
  And to help one another,
  To the end that all souls shall grow into Harmony
  With the Divine.
