We Believe...
The essence of our calling is summed up in a single word: LOVE.
We love and care for one another.
We pursue God’s justice and peace.
We gather to praise God and listen to Him.
We nurture each other in faith.
Mission Statement: Responding to God’s love, our mission is to invite people to a place and time apart where relationships with God, others, and creation are nurtured and where Christ’s call to discipleship is discovered.
