We are an interfaith church. All beneficent belief systems with loving kindness as their base are welcome. We seek to help our congregants to joyfully align into natural harmony with their families, communities, and workplaces; and to realize their soul's true work within the Divine Plan. We encourage religious sincerity and community-building to foster these goals.
We borrow the Sanskrit term for community, which is "sangha."
The qualities of sangha community are:
-
Assemble frequently
-
Meet and disperse peacefully and attend to the affairs of the Sangha both within and outside of meditation, celebration, and worship times.
-
Show respect, honor, esteem, and veneration towards elders, mentors, and lineage holders.
-
Cherish the forest depths for our dwellings and meditations. Nature, as well as heart-filled dwellings, and simple church buildings are our cathedrals.
-
Establish ourselves in mindfulness, in order to embody a model of Presence that may inspire others.
