Diversity & Inclusion
belonging in Christ
So What?
Inspired by the love of Jesus Christ, we commit to celebrating the God-given dignity of all people. We build relationships and collaborate with others to advocate for meaningful change. Our goal is to create lasting structures and practices that make our community a place where everyone feels seen, valued, and empowered to thrive.
Values
We joyfully acknowledge that every individual's unique background, culture, and experience is a cherished part of God's creation. By bringing our differences together, we create a vibrant and complete picture of God's love.
Focus
God has brought a diversity of gifts, perspectives, and cultures to our community, and we celebrate how each person reflects God's image. We actively work to ensure that people from all backgrounds are visible and have a voice.
