New Board Chair For Association

New Board Chair Named for the Association of Unity Churches International

Published Tuesday, June 17, 2008by Lisa Wittman
Reverend Marilyn Muehlbach has been elected chair of the board of trustees of the Association of Unity Churches International. The Association, headquartered in the greater Kansas City Missouri metropolitan area, provides services to some 1000 Unity ministries worldwide.
Reverend Muehlbach was ordained in 1985 and moved to Coeur d'Alene, ID, as minister of Unity Church of North Idaho. She currently travels as a consultant and workshop presenter internationally.

Active in the work of the Association since ordination, she has served on the board since 1995, longer consecutively than any other individual—including as a regional representative, and member of the former executive team. She served on the team that designed the reorganization of the board to a 12-member body. She also served as a member of the executive transition team for selection of a new CEO. Muehlbach has served on organizational teams in the areas of development, licensing and ordination, church growth and development, appeals, and peacemaking.

Muehlbach earned a bachelor's degree in economics from Denison University. Active in the Coeur d'Alene community, she has served as a hospice chaplain, on a task force for human rights, and the local interfaith group.

"The Association of Unity Churches International, in holding a high vision, training leaders, supporting churches and being the voice of Unity in the world, is uniquely positioned to impact the direction the world will take. I envision our ministries and the people who make up those ministries, shining like a beacon of light, illumining the hearts and minds of the people of this Earth, teaching spiritual principles and their practical application that will allow us all to thrive in the 21st Century," she says.

Others elected were: Julie Montague, 1st Vice Chair; David McArthur, 2nd Vice Chair; David and Jim Lee were elected to a second term; Lauren Bundy, lay leader at Unity in Atlanta, was elected to the Board; Diana McDaniel left the Board. Dan Holloway continues on the Board for one more year. Other members: Linda Lowery, Bonny Ashe, Miguel Corales, Eileen Goor, Donna Johnson, Julie Armour; Lei Lanni Burt, Keeper of the Flame.
