Progressive Faith | Beloved Community
From the Pastor’s Welcome: “Our congregation proudly welcomes people from all faith traditions, socioeconomic backgrounds, racial and cultural heritages, sexual orientations, and gender identities. We affirm, and have for several decades, the leadership and full participation of women and our LGBTQ+ identifying friends in the life of the Church.”
Join Us in Worship
We meet for worship in our sanctuary and on Zoom every Sunday morning at 11:00 AM. Our service has traditional mainline Christian elements along with thoughtful, progressive preaching and a time of coffee/fellowship after the service concludes.
