Mission and Vision Statement

 

Mission:

To nurture love of God and love of neighbor in the world.

 

Vision:

We see our church as a place of refuge and spiritual nourishment. Through quality worship services, learned preaching, and sacred music, we experience God’s presence and seek the inspiration to carry God’s blessing into the world.

Ours is a reflective congregation that challenges us to discern God’s word for us in the present day. Our theology is liberal and our worship experience is informal and personal, without emphasis on pomp and circumstance.

We participate together, through Christian Education for children and adults, in increasing our knowledge of God and in helping one another in our spiritual growth.

Our small but growing congregation is a church family, and we share God’s love by caring for one another. We offer hospitality and fellowship that is warm, inviting, and welcoming to all. We embrace the children in our congregation and welcome their participation in worship and the life of the congregation.

As a faith community, we believe we are called to serve our neighbors, near and far, in small ways and large; to reach out and share the blessings of our community with others, spiritually or physically.

We value our diversity and we covenant to share God’s love with everyone, across generations, and embracing any race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability or political affiliation. We offer a place for believers and seekers alike to ponder, question, and celebrate our faith. We embrace our UCC affirmation: “No matter who you are, or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here.”
