Who We Are

We pray that we would be one that the world may know Jesus Christ.

“²²I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— ²³I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” (John 17)

We desire to provide joyful and celebratory liturgy marrying the best of our Anglican heritage infused with holy imagination to enable worship to truly be the work of all God's people and the re-telling of His story.

Love

We desire to love each other sacrificially, forgiving so as to avoid hypocrisy and give integrity to the Good News that we proclaim--reconciliation with God and each other.
