Our Principles

7 principles that guide us

We base our faith not on a creed, but on a set of guiding principles:

  • The inherent dignity and worth of every person;

  • Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;

  • Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;

  • A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;

  • The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;

  • The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;

  • Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

A lot of words. A lot to think about.
