Our faith. Our story.

We believe that there is a God, who created and cares for everything and everyone.

​

Each one of us is made by God and for God.

​

We learn about God and ourselves in the world through the Bible.  To be understood through the Bible, God loves questions and doesn’t expect we will all agree on everything.

​

We expect to grow and learn together.  We believe in the spiritual journey of all people, and the ministry of Jesus Christ.

​

 We ponder our world's challenging issues with humility, careful listening, and a determination to love.

​

We live our faith through service, outreach, and justice-seeking. We believe that all people are beloved children of God and that God's love is available to all.

​

We believe in loving God and loving our neighbors.
