FAQs
Most importantly , we are a congregation that honors diversity and inclusion. We are a lay-led congregation which means that members take part in creating the services on Sunday. Every week is different! Together we plan and support the activities that go on at church. These include social justice projects, game nights and fundraising activities.
We proudly host AA meetings and are a corporate sponsor of Wild Ones, an organization that supports the propagation of native plants.

What to Expect
What do people usually wear?
Come dressed as you’re comfortable! Business casual, jeans. Summer shorts and T-shirts, winter sweaters and boots. Children should wear comfortable clothes, as there are a variety of activities for children, which may include playing with art supplies or going outside.
What about the kids?
School aged kids usually sit in the sanctuary with their parents for the first 10 minutes or so so that they can experience some of our rituals. Beforethe meditation our staff lead them over to the fellowship hall for child appropriate activities. Infants through preschoolers are welcome to be in the Fellowship hall from the start of worship.
What kind of parking is available?
Parking is available to the side of the building and behind the building. There are parking spaces reserved for visitors and for the handicapped. Our buildings are wheelchair accessible.
What is it like to visit?
You will be greeted with a smile at the door and given some information. Then we invite you to fill out a name tag (we all wear one) and a visitor information card. You may sit where ever you like in the sanctuary. Toward the end of the service we invite visitors to briefly introduce themselves, if they wish.
What are services like?
There are readings, music, meditation and a talk (like a sermon). Someone different speaks every week! We always light a chalice at the beginning to signify that we are in a holy space with each other. Often we have a period toward the end called “joys & concerns” where we have an opportunity to share the important happenings in our lives.
And after the service?
Following the Service, everyone is invited to stay for refreshments and conversation in the Fellowship Hall, next to the main building. All are welcome!
