Mission:
"Open, Accepting & Inclusive
We believe every person has been created in the image of the Divine. At First Church
you are welcome to be who you are, to love who you love, and explore your beliefs
at your own pace. Our community of faith is centered around celebrating the diversity
of our congregation. We are committed to justice, equality, dignity, and fairness
for all people. This commitment is essential as we seek to dissolve barriers that
divide us from each other. We have been called to share love and grace across gender
identity, race, sexuality, national origin, and socioeconomic lines. Our partnerships
are centered around other individuals and groups who espouse this value. The way we
use our space, the individuals we invite to participate in the life and conversation
of our church, and our on-going relationships with others who work for justice and
peace, are rooted in this understanding that is at the very heart of our congregation."
