Our Confession of Faith:
- Love: We believe that God is love and seek to embody a radical, transformative love that embraces differences and extends even to our enemies.
- Jesus: We follow the way of Jesus toward justice and mercy, acknowledging his state-sanctioned execution while celebrating the resurrection as proof that death and violence do not have the last word.
- The Bible: We view the Bible as a diverse, inspired collection of sacred scriptures written across cultures, relying on the Holy Spirit and community to interpret its meaning for our lives today.
- Peace, Justice & Reconciliation: Guided by Jesus’ example, we commit to active peacemaking by refusing violence, resisting social oppression like racism, and centering on the needs of the poor and vulnerable.
- Beloved community: Affirming all people as created in God’s image, we foster a diverse and inclusive environment where membership is defined by baptism, a personal statement of faith, and a commitment to the church’s mission.
