Our congregation and campus ministry are committed to being in ministry to and with University students, faculty and staff...Providing nurture for faith journeys, connections with others in the community of faith and opportunities for worship, service and just plain fun!

My way of stating our mission? We're to be passionate, thinking, inclusive disciples of Christ. That's what I want for all of our children, youth and adults. I can't make that happen alone--it takes all of us to nurture this faith community. Will you join me?
