our board of trustees
Donald Chewning,
President
Donald Chewning moved to this area about thirty years ago to join a construction company in Mexico Beach. Friends invited him to Unity in 2007, and he soon found an affinity with the positive message and the welcoming people here.
Unity teachings put into words the Truth ideas Donald has always felt but did not have a way to express. Over the years, he has enjoyed being a part of the Welcome Team, the Hospitality Team, and the Leadership Council.
