We strive to follow the teachings of Jesus by practicing love and forgiveness, promoting health and wholeness for all persons, and working for social justice. We affirm the sacredness of all persons of all abilities, ages, ethnicities, genders, gender expressions and sexual orientations… III. We honor the sacredness of creation by working to heal the earth and preserve its resources for future generations… IV. We accept the challenge to serve as God’s hands in creating a community and world of compassion, justice and reconciliation.
