We are a community of faith seeking to know and serve Jesus Christ and to do his work in the world with committed hearts, open minds and willing hands.

We affirm these objectives:

    • To touch children's lives with the love and teachings of Christ through nursery care, Christian education, and the opportunity to participate in worshipful music, arts and service
    • To offer Junior and Senior High youth joyful, engaging, and meaningful experiences that will give them a life-long Christian foundation
    • To help people of the Congregation identify and use the gifts God has given them
    • To inform, educate, and challenge the Congregation through classes and learning opportunities
    • To care for each other especially in times of need and to celebrate with one another in times of joy
    • To enrich our Christian identity by participating in dialog, community service and educational activities with members of other faiths and communities
    • To be a Christian witness to our local community by participating in programs to provide food, labor, hospitality, and social services
