FOCUS QUESTION.
WHO ARE WE?

WE ARE:

  • Part of a Faith Community (EPUC) gathered around the teachings of Jesus; a diverse community joined in following Jesus. We tend toward being a "Progressive" faith community of critical thinkers whose theology is evolving as we translate it into practical applications of living out faith today. We also have many folks who are quite traditional.
  • A Community that cares for each other; Love of this faith community joins us.
  • A Community that reaches out to others; we want to create community with others.
  • A Community Hub
