Welcome, beloved of God!

Welcome people from every tradition and those new to the faith. This is a place where you are welcome to celebrate and sorrow, to rejoice and to recover.  

This is a place where lives are made new.

Welcome to all who want to follow Christ, have no church home, have doubts, have questions, or do not believe. 

Welcome to new visitors and old friends. 

Welcome to all who have ever felt hurt or unwelcome by the church.

Welcome to people of every age, color and   culture, marital status, ability and challenge, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, and all things that make us unique individuals created by God. 

Welcome to a community where love, mercy, grace, and forgiveness are valued and practiced.

Welcome to a community that stands against the evils of this world including all forms of racism, hatred, and bigotry.  

No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here.

Come, follow Christ with us. 

Welcome, again, on this day.
