Our Core Values

Worship is at the heart of what we do and who we are.
We strive to offer an extravagant welcome to all.
We strive to respect each other in our diversity.
We are inclusive and love each other not in spite of our differences, but because of them.
We are grounded in Sarasota, reaching out beyond our walls to neighbors near and far.
We are a joyful covenant partner with the United Church of Christ.
