Welcome - Join Us

Dear Friends... 
A message from Jim Dannals, Our Rector

Welcome!  And thanks for your curiosity in checking us out.  We are a diverse gathering of folks who are committed to nurturing and challenging all who wish to be part of our life together.  Rather than seeking agreement on all of life’s questions, we listen for God’s voice of Love.  We see the face of Christ in the beauty, dynamic tension and ambiguity of life.  God is very much alive in the balance and even the messiness of life.

We gather because we yearn to be fed.  Around a holy table we are nurtured, challenged and transformed in Christ.  We are then sent out in loving service to God’s creation.  Children are cherished as are our elders, and all are welcome.  No exceptions.  We do our best to support one another and challenge the cynicism of our culture.  The table is set and there is a place for you.

We are committed to the education and formation of all ages.  What naturally flows from our spiritual life programs is our ministries of mercy and justice in the world around us, locally and internationally.  

Throughout this site you will find many ways to connect with us in prayer, music, works of justice & mercy, learning, meditation, Integrity Circle for LGBT persons, our new preschool, dinners for the poor, or our work in Haiti, Honduras and the Sudan.  Know that we will not push you to go faster than you feel led; we respect your decision making and your mind.  We invite you to consider the mystery we have come to know: in losing ourselves, we find ourselves.

I hope to meet you in person.

Gratefully,

Jim
