As people of an historic and ever-renewing congregation of the United Church of Christ, we seek to know and to share the transforming power of God: Creator, Christ and Holy Spirit,
through following the teachings of Jesus Christ, the source of our salvation and the head of the Church;
through regularly gathering together for vital, Biblically-based worship of our God;
through shared life and learning as a community of faith;
through personal spiritual practice;
through faithful stewardship of our resources: financial, property, and human;
through Spirit-led, collaborative decision-making;
through love and service to those in need, physically and spiritually;
through love and respect for one another;
through the full discernment and expression of our God-given individual abilities;
through embracing, honoring, encouraging, and learning from the diversity among us;
through active engagement with our city and all its people; and
through accepting God’s challenge to look beyond our assumptions, to face boldly our questions and doubts, and to reach outside of our every-day comforts.
With God’s help, we strive in faith to be a wellspring of hope for diverse people in our neighborhood, the city, the region and throughout the world.
