Heartland
Metropolitan Community Church Core Values
Commitment to Spiritual
Growth - We are committed to our spiritual growth and
our relationship with the God who loves us all.
We support each other on our personal and communal journeys with our God
through prayer and church groups in order to grow in our relationship with
Christ and with each other.
Social Action/Justice -
At the core of the heart of Jesus' message is a message of social
justice and a preferential option for those on the margins. As a people who have understood
marginalization, we strive to speak forth for human rights and social justice,
not only in words, but in action.
Faithful Cooperation
with other communities - We strive to cooperate with
other communities of faith to show our connectedness with all God's
children. We do that by cooperating on
projects and service ministries with other churches and organizations ,
especially in areas that promote human rights and social justice.
Radical Hospitality -
We believe that hospitality is at the center of true inclusion. We practice a radical hospitality in every
way by striving to provide a welcome in
the spirit of God's love to every person who comes into our church and into our
lives.
