Welcome Statement

As followers of Jesus, we are called to love God and one another, practice liberating hospitality and serve others with humility and generosity. We strive to welcome everyone: believers, questioners, and questioning believers.  We commit ourselves to welcoming people of every race, culture, age, ethnicity, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, physical and mental ability, socioeconomic position, marital status, family structure, citizenship and veteran status.  Likewise, we commit ourselves to embracing the work of racial equity, social and economic justice, and environmental care.

Wednesday, November 5

“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another,” (John 13: 34-34)
I have found that secular music is often as spiritually enlightening, if not more so, as our religious music. An example is the 70's song, Love is the Answer by England Dan and John Ford Coley. We sang this for Easter several years ago and maybe we'll bring it back again in 2026! Enjoy these words as you consider, post-election day, how we all can best live in community together.
Love is the Answer
