Church Description

Unity is a relatively young growing church with a great heart for God’s Word and ministry to our community where we have many healthy partnerships, especially our public schools. We love kids and students which drives our vision for training Champions for Christ! Unity is a missional Southern Baptist Convention and Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia congregation. Just south of Richmond, VA we are in a rural community with a military influence. Our worship style is contemporary, ministry modality is fluid, and the church family is unlike most. Our church family is extremely welcoming and excitedly looks forward to the new things a new Student Pastor can bring to the table as we prepare to send our current Student Pastor & family into the mission field.
