Danny Bohlman became a Governing Member one year ago, having found his way to Unity in August 2024. In 2007 he retired as CFO for the non-profit Save The Food Basket, where he helped them build reserves of $450,000 over 7 years. Until 2004 he was Board President and Licensed Science of Mind Practitioner at the Religious Science Church of Honolulu.

Prior to that he spent 16 years in Atlanta, Georgia as a Computer Programmer, Analyst and Consultant. He was introduced in 1989 to Science of Mind, which has countless parallels to Unity teachings. Danny is currently a Unity Prayer Chaplain, facilitates the Folx with Faith ministry, is a Sunday Service Usher, and updates the Unity Hawaii website.

Robert Brown is many things: a U.S. Army veteran of the Vietnam War; the father of two adult children; a retired lawyer; a Taekwondo black belt; a Religious Science Practitioner; a loving husband; a Waikiki resident; and, most recently, a Unity Prayer Chaplain. More importantly, he knows he is a spiritual being having a human experience and an individualized expression of the Divine. As such, he strives to see God in everyone he encounters, as well as in himself.

He is running for election to the Unity Church of Hawaii Board of Trustees because he wants to be of greater service to the Unity spiritual community on Oʻahu. He believes his life experiences and abilities will allow him to serve well as a productive member of the Board.
