LUTS EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND

• Many of our teachers have advanced college degrees, extensive spiritual background and abilities.

• Data confirmed that we are a dedicated group of highly educated intellectuals and professionals.

• The old myth of the LUT being the “little old lady” has long been replaced by dedicated and capable professionals. We need to update our perceptions from “yesterday” to “today.”

• “ ‘There is a saying that “God helps those who help themselves.’ You are God’s executive, and your indwelling Lord is depending on you to make His glory manifest. Then be up and doing. Do the will of Him who sent you. In so doing you are not only helping yourself but you are helping others.” – J. Freeman THE STORY OF UNITY

• Globally, Licensed Unity Teachers are helping themselves and others through their love and service to the Unity Movement. Their future is unfolding as a very necessary and integral part of the forward movement of which we are all a part.
