About

WHO WE ARE AS A COMMUNITY OF FAITH

We believe that Jesus’ message of unconditional love means that every human being is a child of God and is worthy of love, respect, and inclusion. We welcome and embrace people regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, race, ethnicity, age, faith history, economic status, physical and mental ability, education, and housing status. We stand against discrimination and exclusion by choosing to worship and serve with all people through love, acceptance, and reconciliation.
