Ways We Serve

WE BELIEVE that the mission of Jesus calls us to:

• Conversion that comes through authentic mutuality;
• Openness to the unknown and the unpredictable;
• Prophetic witness that comes from partnering with new eyes;
• Collaboration with others for justice.

WE BELIEVE mutuality can only happen when we:

• Recognize and respect the dignity and authority of every person;
• Acknowledge and deepen our understanding of our privilege, our racism, and our participation in interlocking systems of oppression and exclusion;
• Walk with our sisters and brothers who live in poverty;
• Share our stories and listen empathically.

WE BELIEVE partnering with new eyes happens when we:

• Join with others in working for systemic change that will enable all to live in right relationships;
• Join with others in addressing issues that demean or deny people their human dignity and that force those who are marginalized to bear the burden of unjust systems.
