Our Mission & Principles

Inclusion: We believe that God values and unconditionally loves all people. With Jesus Christ as our model and teacher, we strive together to create an inclusive community. We value and unconditionally welcome all who wish to share our table.

Service: We believe in a shared ministry in which clergy and laity serve and lead together. We look on our church community as extended family, and we accept the responsibility and welcome the privilege of sharing our gifts, resources and lives with each other, our larger community, and the world.

Discovery: We believe in a living faith. We are willing to try new things and consider new thoughts to keep our traditions alive and vital. We want to strengthen our relationship to God, both as individuals and as a community. We embrace the challenge of inevitable change, understanding that our growth may not be easy, but trusting and remaining open to God’s future for us.

Gratitude: We believe in the fundamental goodness of Creation and the original blessing of life. With a grateful heart, we commit ourselves to praising God, to conserving the natural world, and to experiencing the beauty and simplicity of creation through our Grace community and our daily relationships.
