In 1919; Charles and Myrtle Fillmore; founders of the spiritual organization Unity; bought 58 acres of land about 20 miles from downtown Kansas City. With the ideas; faith; and passion of dozens of coworkers; the area grew from a weekend retreat of tents and ponds into Unity Farm; with a national reputation for its orchards and apple products. In 1953; the farm was incorporated as a Missouri municipality�Unity Village. Those original few acres have now grown to more than 1;400 acres. Today Unity Village is the location of a worldwide ministry of publishing; prayer; and education. It is best known as the home of Daily Word magazine; with millions of readers in more than 180 countries; and Silent Unity; which receives more than two million requests for prayer support annually. Unity Village is on the National Register of Historic Places; and its English Cotswold and Italian architecture draw visitors from around the world.
