1. I lead the Dances of Universal Peace at a Unity Church
and have attended Unity services. I know their bookstores include books by Holmes, who founded the Church of Religious Science (Science of Mind). There is at least one follower of that church who sometimes posts here; perhaps she can help. The only person I know who is ordained in Science of Mind is a healer; I don't know if that is what all ministers in that church do or not. I do know that both are mystical in outlook, and open to the concepts that all paths lead to God, as are most Sufis I know.
