Families
We welcome families of all shapes and sizes. No matter your personal belief, we want this to feel like your spiritual home.
We want your children to share their questions and curiosities and encourage them to offer their ideas freely.
We want parents, partners, and caregivers to know that this is a safe place for their family.
Your child’s health and safety, as well as your child’s spiritual and liberal religious education, is of great importance to us.
The congregation currently offers regularly scheduled faith development programming for children and parents online. If you are interested in learning more, please contact the Church Administrator.
There is an active and committed group of families in the congregation who welcome all families to spend time together.
Often Parents/guardians and children gather together in one area of the fellowship hall for conversation and play.
