  I love this community because although not everyone agrees we still strive to love each other and serve Jesus as a body. I love that all people are welcome and encouraged to serve. I love that weekly we pray for any needs in the community. I love that monthly we serve the community instead of have a church service. I am grateful for the people here and the support they have given me.

  My partner and I are a same-sex couple, multi-racial, and have attended this church for over three years now. This was the only church we could find that fit our view of faith, scripture, and liberal beliefs. From the very beginning, everyone was welcoming and inclusive of us, even when we wanted to help with the children's ministry and lead worship. Of course, that's how it should be, but few churches are willing to take that step and be different, standing behind LGBT people and supporting them. Our pastor even got calls from his higher-ups, curious about our involvement in the church, but he has been open and willing to stand along side us and enter into conversation with people about his beliefs and interpretation of scripture. I could say a lot more that would completely negate the previous bad review, but I feel no need to be so defensive of something that I know to be good. It's definitely not perfect, but thats because the Church is made up of people, and people are always a work in progress. This is one of the most sincere, transparent and genuine faith communities I have been a part of.
