Our mission is...
to be a vital Christian community, affirming the gifts of all God’s people: women and men; young and old; of every race, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, ability, and disability. We are called by God to support each other at every stage of our faith journey as we pray, worship, proclaim the Gospel, and promote justice, peace, and love. By these means, we seek to restore all to unity with God and each other in Christ."
