Vision
Congregational Priorities:
To demonstrate that we are:
An inclusive congregation where all generations are welcome and we intentionally break down walls that would divide us and build bridges of acceptance and understanding.
A healing community where people are helped to develop their minds, bodies and spirits, and are encouraged to become a healing presence in the world.
An evangelizing community where people are touched with the Good News of God’s love reflected in the life of Jesus and where people are invited to respond to that love.
A worshipping family where we gather close to each other and to God, to be touched by the Holy Spirit and enriched by the proclamation of Biblical truth.
An affirming center where people discover their gifts for ministry and are equipped to help make their communities more loving and just.
A teaching community where all generations can learn and encourage the education of others in ways that formulate mature faith formation.
