There is room for you
You do not have to become less of yourself to belong here.
We are an all-inclusive church where prejudice is not welcome. Gender, sexuality, race, age, disability, family structure, background, and prior church experience are not barriers to dignity, participation, or community.
Follow a calling
If something is stirring in you, you do not have to discern it alone. We welcome people exploring service, ministry, and holy orders.
Bring your community
Small faith groups can become part of a wider diocesan family while preserving the identity and gifts that make their community particular.
Connected across distance
A wide horizon. One connected community.
Our Diocese encompasses the central and western United States. Geography may spread us out, but shared life, mutual care, and a commitment to welcome bring us together.
Our journeys matter
A community becomes real when people are heard.
We hope to share journeys in the future—with permission, care, and respect. For now, these are invitations to begin.
What brought you here?
Sometimes a search begins with hope. Sometimes it begins with hurt. Both stories deserve to be received gently.
Where did you feel seen?
Tell us about the people, practices, and moments that made belonging feel possible.
What do you hope to build?
A local gathering, a ministry, a new way to serve, or simply a more faithful life can all begin with one honest idea.
The Outreach Arcade
Play can open a door.
Our games pair a little delight with ideas worth carrying into the world. There are no gotchas and no leaderboard—just room to discover.
