Our Values
Community
Community as a place of belonging, safety, healing, sharing and becoming whole. Within community we discover ourselves as we grow together and build a supportive network of relationships.
Spirituality
Spirituality in the broadest sense of the word. We do not attempt to be anyone's sole faith community; rather, we endeavor to support and strengthen one another's own spiritual journey. We believe that prayer is a foundation of Our Place; however, we respect an individual's choice to participate in spiritual activities.
​
Celebration of Life
Celebration of Life because celebrations bring the community together to mark special occasions. We seek and acknowledge the contributions made in the community and share in each other’s talents and gifts. In this way we strive to create a joyful and healing environment.
​
Hospitality
Hospitality because by all sharing what we have and what we are we nourish both the individual and the community. We seek to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all.
Compassion
Compassion for others is fundamental to Our Place. We believe this is achieved through mutual respect for others, listening without judging and accepting one another’s differences.
​
Responsible Stewardship
We strive to operate with the highest level of integrity, adhere to strong governance and work together to meet our responsibilities to the community and uphold the values of Our Place.
