Tapestry of Faith Vision
What shapes the vision for this remarkable new program? You'll never guess!
Tapestry of Faith offers a vision shaped by these key beliefs:
- All people are lovable beings of infinite worth, imbued with powers of the soul. We are obligated to use our gifts, talents, and potentials in the service of life.
- We carry on our Unitarian Universalist religious heritage and are part of a community of faith that has value and provides resources for living.
- We honor our responsibility for the care and creative transformation of our religious heritage and community of faith.
- We are moral agents who can make a difference in the lives of other people:
- challenging structures of social and political oppression
- promoting the health and well-being of the planet
- acting in the service of diversity, justice and compassion
- We recognize the need for community and affirm the importance of families, relationships and connections between and among the generations.
- We appreciate the value of spiritual practice as a means of deepening faith and integrating beliefs and values with everyday life.
- Joy and Sadness are all part of our lives: hope, mystery, joy, healing, and personal transformation come together with life's challenges.
