A Compassionate Community
Believing that we are charged to act on God's mission, we seek to become the Creator's hands and heart in this world. We strive to be God's welcoming love in an all-encompassing community, believing that from our own privilege comes much responsibility.
Intentionally Inclusive
We seek to trust in the uniqueness and diversity of God's children, believing Grace is infinite and is offered to all. Trusting that the paths of faithfulness are many, we invite, welcome, and embrace all people of God's 'kindom.' We strive to love and support each other in our 'differentness,' as we meet God's family face to face.
Openly Searching
We believe that the pilgramage of all human beings is to understand God and God's mission. As progressive seekers on a lifelong spiritual journey, we find more grace in the questions than in dogmatic answers, more faith in our search than in human-conceived answers. We believe that our lifelong journeys are as varied as the ways of learning, and that our walk together strengthens our relationship with God, each other, and the world.
Joyfully Serving
We belive that the abundance of God's grace is exciting, liberating, inviting and life-changing. Opportunities to do justice and bring kindness are many and are expected of us as God's missionaries in this world. From the abundance of our blessings, we join the generations that came before us to continue the circle of service to God's children, as joyful stewards of God's wondrous creation.
In The Way Of Christ
We claim our voice as a Christian community, welcoming the challenges and opportunities as we approach God through the life and teachings of Jesus. Together we seek to imitate Jesus'compassionate treatment of those often excluded from society. We covenant with each other and with God to do justice, as Jesus did.

What's a Call ?
Our "call" is a statement of our highest goals as a a faith community.
We have made every effort to be very intentional in this statement.
It is the unique reflection of
an extensive process of visioning carried out by our whole church in 2005.
