We clarify our understanding of the universe around us and our participation in it, both personally and as a religious community.
Our community's purpose is to establish and maintain environments that support life based in faithful stewardship.
From our perspective, faith is not a matter of "firmly held belief" as a dictionary might define it. Faith is a state of being in which we accept what is, as the Eternal has made it and as we have shaped it.
Faith is also the state of understanding that we have a place in the universe as the Eternal has made it.
We consider life, and our place in it, as accountable stewardship, rather than as a matter of personal ownership.
We are obliged in our dealings to consider the well-being of those they encompass, and not just our own interests.
