Welcome!

No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey,
you are welcome here!

We believe in extravagant welcome. We uphold the value and integrity of each person’s faith journey. This is why God’s communion table is open to everyone and God’s gift and claim in baptism are irrevocable. Our congregation extends hospitality as a sign of God’s inclusive love. We teach that offering bread to all who seek it is God’s mission for the church. Why?  

Because no matter who you are, or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here.  

We believe the church mission is to change lives-individually, systemically, and globally. We work to make change possible., but trust God’s grace. We are committed to working for justice and we believe that our lives are changed, make a difference, and find meaning through local and global experiences and friendships.  Why?

Because when we do it for the least of these we do it for Christ.

We believe in God’s continuing testament. This is why we are committed to hearing God’s ancient story anew and afresh in our lives and in the world today. Whenever we do Bible study in this church, we encourage and value everyone’s participation. No one needs to be a Bible expert! Instead we ask you to use your imagination and your own natural intelligence as we probe the text together. We ask open-ended questions that do not have exact right or wrong answers, remembering that the Holy Spirit speaks through each of us. Why?

Because God is still speaking,

As followers of Jesus, we are called to be advocates and agents for change in our world.  Jesus calls us out into the world to be his Love, Healing, and Hope.   We are a community of ordinary people with an extraordinary vision. If you’re ready to do something, small or large, we invite you to join us.
