Churching @EUCC Our Mission | Nuestra Misión The members of Eden Church worship God and strive to follow Christ’s example by welcoming all, seeking God’s wisdom, growing spiritually, caring for each other, enriching our neighborhood, and sharing the good news of God’s creative and unfolding work in the world. Los miembros de la Iglesia de Edén adoran a Dios y se esfuerzan en seguir el ejemplo de Cristo dándoles la bienvenida a todos, buscando la sabiduría de Dios, creciendo espiritualmente, cuidándonos unos a otros, enriqueciendo nuestro vecindario y compartiendo las buenas noticias del trabajo que Dios hace en el mundo. Our Vision | Nuestra Visión Our vision is to grow in spirit, fellowship, and number by offering many opportunities for spiritual growth; by becoming a more culturally diverse congregation; by strengthening our capacity to serve our neighbors; by caring for each other as Christ cares for us; by inviting others to be a part of our community of faith; and by working to transform individual lives and our community through the power of God’s love in human action. Nuestra visión es crecer en espíritu, compañerismo y en membresía, a través de ofrecer oportunidades para el crecimiento espiritual, convertirnos en una congregación culturalmente diversa, reforzar nuestra capacidad para servir a la gente a nuestro alrededor, cuidarnos entre nosotros de la misma manera en que Cristo nos cuida, invitar a otros a ser parte de nuestra comunidad de Fé y trabajar para transformar las vidas individuales y nuestra comunidad a través del poder del amor de Dios, presente en la acción humana. Our Values | Nuestros Valores In order to fulfill our mission and realize our vision, Eden Church strives to embrace and express the following core values: Worship and spiritual practice that are both traditional and contemporary Religious education for all that is grounded in a progressive theology Caring relationships that honor differences and foster unity and growth Enriching experiences for children and youth in our church and community Programs and partnerships that serve those in need while addressing the root causes of social problems Being a true sanctuary that nurtures and protects all participants, especially the most vulnerable among us We’re a welcoming church where you won’t be told what to believe because we feel that the way we treat one another is more important than holding uniform beliefs. And while the Bible is important to our faith, it is not the last word. We believe that God is Still Speaking through science, nature, personal experience, other faith traditions and more. Para cumplir nuestra misión y realizar nuestra visión, la Iglesia Edén se esfuerza por adoptar y expresar los siguientes valores fundamentales: Adoración y prácticas espirituales que son tanto tradicionales como contemporáneas. Educación religiosa basada en una teología progresiva. Relaciones interpersonales que honran las diferencias y fomentan la unidad y el crecimiento. Experiencias enriquecedoras para niños y jóvenes en nuestra iglesia y comunidad. Programas y asociaciones que sirven a los necesitados mientras abordan las causas profundas de los problemas sociales. Ser un verdadero santuario que nutre y protege a todos los participantes, especialmente a los más vulnerables entre nosotros. Somos una iglesia acogedora donde no se le dirá qué creer, ya que creemos que la forma en que nos tratamos es más importante que tener creencias uniformes. Y aunque la Biblia es importante para nuestra fe, creemos que Dios todavía está hablando a través de la ciencia, la naturaleza, la experiencia personal, otras tradiciones de fe y más.
