Sharing a Vision of Healing & Hope

God calls us to be followers of Jesus Christ and,
by the power of the Holy Spirit, to grow as communities of grace, joy and peace,
so that God’s healing and hope flow through us to the world.

We are a diverse community, and one thing that unites us is how we practice our faith in the world…

Actively following Jesus is central to our lives.
We seek to follow Jesus above nationalism, racism or materialism.
We are a historic peace church. We follow Jesus as a peacemaker and believe that we can practice the way of Jesus’ reconciling love in human conflicts and in response to violence.
We believe in living simply and in service to others as a witness to God’s love for the world.
