• Diversity and Inclusiveness. We are a multi-generational congregation which seeks to support the spiritual journey of all ages. We welcome and respect all people, regardless of socio-economic status, ethnicity, race, gender and sexual orientation. We welcome diverse ideas expressed with Holy manners.
• Fellowship. We seek to be a safe, welcoming, Christian community where friendships are nurtured and enjoyed.
• Justice and Service. We seek to support people living in poverty, the dispossessed, and the hurting people within our neighbourhood and globally.
• Life-Long Learning. As followers of Jesus, we are on a life-long journey of Christian education, prayerful discernment, and spiritual development.
• Mutual Care. We look after each other through the intentional ministry of pastoral care and the loving efforts of congregational groups and individuals.
• Wise Stewardship. We are all called to be wise stewards of God’s creation and the resources of time, talent, and treasure offered in service to God’s realm.
