  • Spiritual and theological formation grounded in scripture, reason, the Episcopal tradition, and integrated with life experience.
  • Hospitality that invites, welcomes, and incorporates all who seek God in Jesus Christ.
  • Outreach that personifies Christ’s love and Servanthood.
  • Relationships centered in Christ’s redeeming grace for all.
  • Diversity that rejoices in our differences and our unity in Christ.
