Our Mission, Vision, and Core Values

Our Mission

Pathways' mission is to build a spiritual community that changes lives through acts of compassion, service, love, and justice. It's each and every one of us that creates our beloved community!

Our Vision

To be a welcoming, inclusive beacon of progressive spirituality and radical love in our community, fostering deep connections and inspiring meaningful action for justice.

Core Values

Our core convictions as a congregation lead us to practice the following behaviors:

Encouraging Spiritual Growth

We strive to provide people of all ages with personal and spiritual growth experiences that are nurturing, challenging, and potentially transformational. We are sensitive to differences in spiritual style and offer a variety of worship and learning options that celebrate those differences.

Creating Radical Hospitality

We welcome and embrace those who are new to our community and aspire to be sensitive to their needs. We strive to honor differences related to age, race, sexual orientation, and physical ability, among others. We actively support members and friends of our community in times of celebration and crisis.

Building Healthy Relationships

We communicate open-minded respect in our interactions with each other. We strive for supportive relationships, encourage healthy dialogue, and manage conflict in fair and positive ways. We are especially mindful of our children and youth and work to ensure their safety and security.

Sharing Our Resources

We give generously out of an abundance mentality. We are wise stewards of our financial resources.

Recognizing and Using Our Talents

We assist each other in discovering and developing our talents. We find meaningful ways to use these gifts in leadership and service roles.

Sharing Our Journey

We are intentional about sharing who we are and what we stand for with people who have never before heard about Pathways or Unitarian Universalism.

Making a Difference

We engage in outward directed service opportunities that make a difference in our local community and the world.
