What's different?
- We sit in a circle rather than in pews.
- The words of our liturgy reflect joy in creation and a concern for social justice.
- Sermon time usually includes both a brief reflection aimed at adults and teens and Godly Play for children, ending with open discussion.
- We offer bread and wine to one another each week during communion, and everyone who is hungry--young or old, friend or stranger--is welcome at the Table.

- Recognizing them as beloved and important members of our faith community.
