MISSION AND VISION STATEMENTS 2008

Our Mission:

To do small things with great love as one church family by following Christ’s example of openness as expressed in the Parables.

Our Vision:

                  · Open Minds

We will empty ourselves of the ego “I already know” and willingly seek paths of truth.

                  · Open Hearts

We will care about others as if they and we were one, our hearts breaking with their pain.

                  · Open Hands

We will reach beyond self-concerns and commit time, gifts and talents outside our church.

                  · Open Table

We will struggle honestly and profoundly with what it means to be truly inclusive in
Christ’s love.
