Diversity
In this church community we strive to Affirm and Promote the inherent worth and dignity of every person (our first Principle), to welcome and celebrate the full humanity and every person, in just, loving, and tangible ways. No exception. We invite you to include yourself in that blessing.
Spiritual Growth
We welcome all people regardless of race, color, creed, political persuasion and sexual orientation. Our church has no required system of belief, rather we explore and share a variety of spiritual experience so each of us can develop an understanding meaningful to us personally.
Social Justice
There is a great need for a restoration of justice in our world, addressing issues of age, gender, economics, physical and mental ability, sexual orientation and more. In particular, the need exists for us personally and institutionally to be willing to see, reckon with, and change the history of injustice towards people of color into a future of greater equality for all who have been marginalized by a dominant culture.
It doesn’t matter
where you or your ancestors are from, who you love, your gender identity, your theology, politics, or your immigration status, we welcome all those who are committed to our core values as expressed in our seven principles.
Together
we come to this place to share our hopes, dreams and visions. We seek to build a diverse and inclusive community that honors our first principle: the inherent worth and dignity of every being.
