Welcome! We're a small church doing BIG things with the help of God!
We believe that God loves, values and embraces each person as a beloved child. Therefore, we welcome people of every age, size, color, culture, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, ability and challenge. We welcome people from all faith traditions, those with doubts, and those with no sense of faith at all. We also commit ourselves to the pursuit of environmental, economic, social and racial justice.
Our mission is to meet God, practice community, serve Christ and live generously!
“When pressure rises… when uncertainty grows… when the future feels dangerous or unclear… every instinct in us screams: react. Move. Do something. There are moments when the hardest thing in the world is not action—but restraint. Not because nothing needs to be done—but because moving too quickly can make things worse.
Before the church speaks, it listens. Before it acts, it gathers. Before it moves, it waits. And waiting is hard when we’re feeling anxious… but waiting—and praying—is not inactivity. It is training. It is humility… and disciplined restraint.”
“In a world that moves quickly… discards quickly… forgets quickly… leaves quickly… the followers of Jesus remain. We stay. We sit beside hospital beds. We keep showing up with casseroles. We keep making phone calls. We mentor other people’s children. We forgive one another. We show up at funerals because nobody should grieve alone. We pray when words come hard. We keep loving even after disappointment. Because Christ has abided with us.”
Every day, voices around us tell us what deserves our fear… our focus… our devotion.
We live in a world filled with noise—
constantly demanding our attention and telling us where to look every hour of the day.
Look at what you lack.
Look at who is winning.
Look at who is failing.
Look at who to fear.
Look at who to blame.
But what we keep looking at… has the power to shape us.
If we spend our lives staring only at anger… we become angry.
If we stare only at fear… fear begins to rule us.
If we stare only at what is broken… despair slowly settles into the bones.
But we have the power to look up—
to see the heavens opened—
and Jesus standing before us…
claiming us…
strengthening us…
so that fear and violence don’t get the last word.
