Transition Services: Our ministers are available to assist when loved ones move from this visible plane to an invisible one. Families should contact the Center before making arrangements. Memorial services, not transitional services (funerals), may be held at the Center.

Spiritual Baptism: In New Thought Christianity, baptism represents "the spiritual cleansing of the mind," and is "the first step in the realization of Truth" (Charles Fillmore). At the Universal Truth Center, no water is used to mark this occasion; rather, individuals who choose to become members make a conscious commitment to the process and receive the blessing of the church body. Orientation is required.

Baby Christening and Children's Spiritual Baptism: Babies under two years of age are christened in the care of their parents and guardians. Children ages two and above receive spiritual baptism. Parents desiring these services for their children should contact the Center's office.

Congregational Care: This service ministers to the members and friends of the Universal Truth Center by:

  • Sending monthly correspondence to college students and military personnel, upon the request of members and friends of UTC.
  • Making visits to homes, hospitals, and nursing homes when requested.
  • Providing care and support of family members through transitional experiences.
  • Offering support to individuals facing challenges or "growth opportunities."
