Core Values

1.

We value people! They are the only reason we exist and we value them as our greatest asset.

2.

We value the Holy Bible as the word of God and base our tenants and values in line with the teachings of Jesus Christ.

3.

We value the Holy Spirit and his palpable presence and we value others knowing this is a relationship for them as well.

4.

We value being a part of the larger body, understanding community is a life-affirming and live-changing force that we all need to be deeply rooted in.

5.

We value the creation of communities that thrive on our commonalities but learn and grow through diverse spaces. These places allow others to expand in their gifts of loving others and finding their place as contributors to their communities.

6.

We value loyalty, kindness, service to others, and teamwork which are birthed out of communities who are motivated through love for others.

7.

We value the collective gifts of each individual. We understand we don’t have all the answers to all things, but by working together as a collaborative participant in a network of others, we believe we can find all answers.
