Today, our church family numbers nearly 1,200 - over 800 of them members - representing many walks of life, beliefs, ethnicities, and sexual orientations. On Sunday, five generations join to worship and study together, and throughout the week we pursue our spiritual pilgrimages through service to the church, our community, and our families. Our compassion extends beyond our church walls - in 2008 we gave nearly $90,000 to outreach missions of care and compassion. And our preschool, which some parents have characterized as "the last perfect place on Earth" provides a solid learning and creative foundation for 90 youngsters in our community each year.
Our Bylaws affirm that we are an "open and affirming" congregation, meaning that sexual orientation in and of itself is not an issue for membership, leadership, or ordination. Besides our wider church connection with the UCC, we are a member of The Center For Progressive Christianity and affirm the eight points of a progressive expression of Christianity.
Though worship is the Sunday morning hub, our life in community is nurtured by our many small groups, each with a distinct fellowship, musical, social justice, support, or spiritual growth focus. Companions in Christ, Ensemble Choir, Dinners for Eight, Grief Support, and Youth Groups, are a few examples of our small-group emphasis.
