GPUC Vision Statement
Preamble
We, the Grosse Pointe Unitarian Church congregation, commit to creating a liberal religious presence in our community and beyond--a dynamic presence that enables us to "envision a life filled with compassion for all, shared in beloved community, and lived in a just world." Our vision statement reflects our congregational commitment to the future. It is based on the congregational responses to an anonymously administered survey followed by vigorous discussion shared in open, small groups.
The vision captures our congregational dreams for our spiritual and programmatic needs, outreach and social justice efforts, facilities needs, pastoral care, fellowship opportunities and fundraising efforts.
Vision Statement
We provide diverse and compelling ways for people of all ages to grow in spirit, conscience, and wisdom. Our worship services, lifelong educational programs, music, and service initiatives inspire children, youth, and adults to live with greater purpose, respect, and love. Through meaningful advocacy, outreach, and service we express our common commitment to social justice, peace, and compassion within and beyond our community.
As a welcoming and compassionate community we recognize that the care of one another is our shared responsibility. We recognize the importance of deep and enduring relationships within our congregation. We respond kindly and generously to needs within our community. We strive to welcome and integrate newcomers effectively. We foster fellowship by offering a variety of opportunities for social interaction in large and small groups.
The architectural design of Grosse Pointe Unitarian Church and its grounds are a statement of hope for all to see. We will maintain and enhance our church grounds and facilities to meet the needs of our church family.
