Who we are

Our Mission: “Following Christ, we connect a diversity of people with each other and with God.”

​We are a group of people living our identity as followers of Christ through the sharing of our life stories, life’s joys and concerns, and our calling to work for peace and justice for all people.

What we believe


We are the church, united in Christ through our worship, outreach to others, and in our fellowship.

​Each person has the right to understand faith without having to accept a specific doctrine, dogma or confession of faith.

We think of God as a Father and Creator, as revealed in Jesus Christ and as a Holy Spirit that dwells within each person.
Picture
We celebrate the sacraments of Baptism and an open Communion where all people are invited to share in. 

​
We believe faith requires a big, kind, love committed to changing lives....and we invite you to join us in this journey to figure it out!
