What We Believe/Denominational Ties

Who We Are

We are a welcoming church
We are an open and affirming community of faith that intentionally welcomes all people with the inclusive hospitality of Christ. We invite people of any ability, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, age, education, socioeconomic or marital status, or any other life circumstance, to fully join us in worship, education, servant leadership, and outreach. We affirm Christ’s inclusive love and justice for all; celebrating and embracing our diversity.

We aspire to be a warm, loving, and faithful church where we continually strive to create meaningful opportunities for growth and service, following Jesus’ examples of service and unconditional love.  We hope people find Geneva Church to be a safe place to worship, to serve, to find belonging and community, and to grow in their relationship with God.

We are committed to social justice
Standing in the tradition of the Hebrew prophets and the ministry of Jesus Christ, our faith community stands against the many evils perpetuated by systemic and cultural racism in our country. We grieve the killings of our African-American brothers and sisters at the hands of police violence and are committed to working to make justice and equity a greater reality in all aspects of our society.

We are committed to act boldly and compassionately to serve people who are hungry, oppressed, imprisoned or poor.
We strive to be a Matthew 25 church.

We are committed to being loving stewards of God’s earth.
We are qualified to be certified as an Earth Care Congregation.
