OUR CORE VALUES

We acknowledge that there are many spiritual paths, all worthy of understanding and respect.

We recognize that, as one human family, we share basic needs and goals for happiness and well-being.

We appreciate that, as diverse individuals and groups, we have unique gifts to offer the whole society.

We believe dialogue and celebration of diversity lead to social justice, spiritual transformation, and a more peaceful, harmonious community.

We operate from a position of respect and dialogue with each other, in a manner that is open, loving, and frank.

"Consider the family of humankind one."
Jainism. Jinasena, Adipurana

We are a small group of Central Minnesota people connected to the larger surrounding communities through our various faith communities, schools, workplaces and other parts of our daily lives.

We are teachers, homemakers, factory workers, nurses, doctors, office workers, students, business owners, musicians, artists, mothers and fathers, sons and daughters.

We are people from all walks of life working and playing together to help ourselves and others learn to overcome the barriers of fear and misunderstanding about our differences.

We are about creating vibrant, interactive and welcoming relationships. We are Christian, Jew, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Pagan, Baha'i, Atheist, Mormon, Unitarian Universalist, and all other expressions of the Sacred. We are here to befriend and help each other in whatever ways we can.
