Core Values
Beloved, let us love one another,
because love is from God.
Whoever does not love,
does not know God,
for God is love.(from I John 4)
God's goal is for us
to become mature adults,
as each one does their part.
(from Eph. 4)

and other bodies in the UCC which make a public covenant
of welcome into their full life and ministry to persons of
