Imagine a religion that embraces many different beliefs… including yours.Welcome!Thank you for visiting our website. We hope you will visit us this Sunday morning! We are a theologically diverse congregation. Our shared worship is framed around our belief that how we live together - how we take care of each other and the earth - is critically important, and we strive to live our lives guided by compassion and a commitment to social justice. We also commit to each other that we will respect and support each person's sincere, responsible search for truth and meaning, and we recognize that this is an ever-evolving journey. We are an ethical and liberal religious community dedicated to promoting the ongoing search for truth and to affirming the inherent worth and dignity of every individual. We welcome all who would like to be part of a caring, open-minded, spiritual community. Our ServicesPlease join us on Sunday mornings for services from 10:45 a.m. to noon. Children have religious education classes at the same time. Everyone is invited to stay after the service for light refreshments and conversation. Although we do not hold Sunday services in the summer (mid June to late August) please check our News & Events page for summer activities. This year services will resume on August 30.

Upcoming ServicesSunday, May 31th at 10:45 a.m.: Rabbi Stephen Sniderman Sunday, June 7 at 10:45: Our Graduations Caps and gowns are all around these days, so I'd like to extend the celebration and the challenges to all of us, since humanity is graduating these days into a new era of freedom and responsibility. I'll use Paul Hawken's extraordinary address to the seniors in Portland, Oregon, as a basis. During our last Sunday service of this church year, we will have a New Member Ceremony at which we will recognize those who have joined since our last ceremony in January.
