To be a community where our lives, hopes, and sorrows may be shared in trust
To seek and build upon the love of God alive within each of us, and all people
To practice forgiveness, provide encouragement, and accept support
To join together in exploration of our meaning and purpose as children of God
To welcome all people to join us in an open and affirming and accessible to all community of faith
To celebrate and preserve the beauty of nature and all that is God’s creation
To respond to God with the offering of ourselves and our resources to promote God’s justice, mercy, and peace in our world
For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me. —Matthew 25:35–36
