Welcome
We are delighted that you found us. We envision this site as a “front porch,” where you can come and find out about us in a very comfortable manner, and learn more about many facets of our life together. Feel free to browse through and see if there is a meaningful way for you to connect… to connect with the Divine Source of our life, to connect with other folks who are passionate and engaged, and to connect with the world around us!
For our community, we will not “hide our light under a bushel basket.” This is who we are and what we are all about. You are invited to come and explore our community of faith in whatever way is meaningful for you.
We pray that you might find our community of faith a place of new-found relevance for your spiritual searching – a place where you don’t necessarily go to find the “right” answers, but a place to explore your questions and your faith. We strive to be a diverse place, that requires us to engage with one another grounded in the love of God.
Church family,
After dialogue with the Council, the Re-opening Committee, and the District Superintendent, in light of the request from the Spokane Regional Health District to postpone all indoor gatherings, we are announcing a temporary suspension of in-person worship for the next four (4) Sundays. We will continue to livestream the service at 9:30am on both our Facebook and Youtube pages. We will return to in-person worship on February 13th. View the video or read more here.
To watch our services live online go to our YouTube channel or Facebook page. Live videos begin Sunday mornings at 9:30 am. To watch previous videos go to the Sermons page.
Education
Our church is convinced that the Christian faith addresses all aspects of our lives – including spiritual, physical, social, and political. Our educational topics reflect this holistic approach. These programs are offered as Community Classroom events or in our Sunday adult education classes after worship each week.
Health & Wellness
Nurturing both mind and body is one of our core missions. Our beautiful building is a place for activities like Yoga, Tai Chi, Pickle Ball, and more. Events like our Seasonal Feasts celebrate nutritional health using gifts from our own community garden.
Creation Care
We take seriously our role in sustainability and forward-thinking creation care ideas, whether it comes from our beautiful community gardens, or educational programs and research about environmental issues.
Compassion & Justice
As Christians, we are called to do Acts of Compassion and Acts of Justice. Compassion is showing kindness to another person. Justice is an action that creates a change that makes things fairer in our community or world.

New Year, New Dreams
I read once about the Prisoners of War during WWII, Vietnam, and Korean Wars. When they asked the survivors about those who died, what they discovered is that those who believed they’d be home “by Christmas” did not survive long [...]
