What We Believe

We, Episcopalians, believe in a loving, liberating, and life-giving God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

 

As constituent members of the Anglican Communion in the United States, we are descendants of and partners with the Church of England and the Scottish Episcopal Church, and are part of the third largest group of Christians in the world.

​

We believe in following the teachings of Jesus Christ, whose life, death, and resurrection saved the world.

​

We have a legacy of inclusion, aspiring to tell and exemplify God’s love for every human being; women and men serve as bishops, priests, and deacons in our church.

 

Laypeople and clergy cooperate as leaders at all levels of our church. Leadership is a gift from God, and can be expressed by all people in our church, regardless of sexual identity or orientation.

​

We believe that God loves you – no exceptions.

​We acknowledge that we gather on the ancestral and unceded lands of the Snoqualmie Tribe, known in their own Lushootseed language as sdukʷalbixʷ, the People of the Moon.

The Snoqualmie people have lived on and cared for this land since time immemorial, maintaining deep spiritual and cultural relationships with the rivers, forests, and mountains of this place. We honor their continuing presence, resilience, and sovereignty.

As Episcopalians in the Diocese of Olympia, we recognize our call to repentance for the harms done to Indigenous peoples, and we seek to walk in right relationship, guided by the Gospel’s call to justice, reconciliation, and care for God’s creation. We give thanks for the land we inhabit and commit ourselves to learning, humility, and faithful stewardship.
