Walking Together Toward Courageous Love

Our Horizon

Moved by the Mystery of Love,
we are, and are becoming,
a wild web of relationship,
a communion of communities, cultures and diverse faith experiences
walking into life as we seek the life of the world together,
trusting in the liberating Spirit Jesus brings.

Our Values

Mutuality: without condescension or proselytizing, we journey together, sharing bread as each one of us is changed through this sacred encounter. Together, we move in Christ’s Way of spiritual and transformational friendship.

Dignity: we seek to honor the unique voices, practices, and memories of all created beings, seeing one another as participants and co-creators in God’s creative and resurrective action.

Integrity: we attend to our words and actions, seeking and learning, so that our practices embody our values, our witness becoming more whole, through mutual accountability, evaluation, transparency and shared respect.

Humility: courageously and compassionately, we seek to bring our whole selves and shared life into conversations and challenges, learning from others, including our ancestors, and naming hard things as we trust God to waste nothing in the nurturing of community.

Wisdom from the Edges: trusting in the presence of Christ in all life, particularly in the ones whom the world would sacrifice, we connect the edges of the community with our own pushed aside, buried, and silenced edges, opening wild imagination, courage and resilient capacity for new life.
