Core Values
1. Grace at the Center
We believe God’s love is a gift, freely given. We strive to be a community where grace shapes how we worship, learn, forgive, and care for one another.
2. Welcome and Inclusion
We welcome people of every age, culture, background, family structure, and life experience, trusting that God calls us to love without exception.
3. Intergenerational Community
We value relationships across generations, honoring our shared history while creating activities for children, youth, families, and elders to grow together in faith and fellowship.
4. Meaningful Worship
We offer worship that is thoughtful and engaging, drawing from both Lutheran tradition and contemporary expression to meet people where they are.
5. Spiritual Growth for All of Life
We are committed to lifelong faith formation through learning, prayer, conversation, and service, trusting that God continues to shape us throughout our lives.
6. Active Service and Community Engagement
We believe faith is lived out beyond our walls. We seek to serve our neighbors and respond to the needs of our local and global community.
7. A Global and Multicultural Vision
We celebrate our Japanese ministry and other expressions of cultural diversity as signs of God’s work among us and reminders that the Church is broader than any one tradition or language.
