Welcoming Statement

You are warmly welcome here,
     Whatever your race,
     whatever your origins,
     whatever your challenge,
     whatever your religious background, or absence of one,
     whatever your identity or sexual orientation.
     We hold women and men in equal dignity,
     we value young and old,
     and we believe that community can be achieved without conformity of thought.
     Our religious community is based on individual freedom, tolerance, and a mutual search for truth.
We welcome you to share your spiritual journey.

Each Sunday morning we begin our service by saying:
We welcome you to bring all that you are: your beliefs and traditions, your identity, your story and
the wisdom of your years to this congregation.  You are welcome here.  In our presence may you always seek your truth, speak your truth in love and live your truth through service.  And through all your days in our presence may you experience love.
