CORE VALUES

Spiritual growth

We are transformed by being followers of Jesus and part of this particular community of faith, through worship, music, fellowship, small groups, and action.

Welcome

We see our church as open and welcoming, with sensitivity and awareness to others in need.

Justice-seeking

We follow Jesus by speaking out and taking action on issues of injustice, challenging “principalities and powers” in our community and world.

MISSION STATEMENT

We are a progressive UCC church in Pasadena. Following Christ and growing in relationship with God and each other, we welcome the stranger and advocate justice for all creation.

VISION STATEMENT

Exploring our faith and responding to God’s word, we create opportunities for spiritual and intellectual growth for children and adults and
for relationships of respect, love and service in our community.

Embodying God’s love and the teachings of Jesus Christ we celebrate diversity in race, age, gender identity, sexual orientation, and physical ability, and welcome all persons who seek compassion, reconciliation, and friendship.

Demonstrating faith in action we help alleviate hunger and homelessness and work with the educationally underserved and marginalized in the greater Pasadena area.

We renew hope by working on behalf of the poor and disenfranchised in the wider world; building dignity, promoting care for the environment and advancing economic justice.
