We believe the work of the church is God's work. All active participants in the congregation participate in its decision making process, working to keep the congregation attuned to God's leading, trying to discern God's will at each step. We do this by deliberately shedding personal desires, listening to and discovering the wisdom in the gathered community, exploring potentials and striving for consensus about a way forward. Along the way we must be attentive for signs of God's approval - consolation or desolation. Membership is for those who wish to formally identify themselves with this congregation, and does not confer any special privileges. Please see our Decision Making Process document. |
