CLF Membership Covenant
As we come together in community, it is important to clarify group values and expectations. We seek to create a safe and welcoming place and will operate under the following principles whether we are online or offline:
RESPECT – Our overarching value will be one of respect for self and others as well as for people and ideas we may disagree with. We will value the worth and dignity of all people.
TOLERANCE AND APPRECIATION OF DIVERSITY – We will seek to operate under a "both/and" rather than an "either/or" philosophy (i.e., we will honor others' paths and welcome differences).
COMPASSION – Ours is a congregation with a spirit of caring and support. We will seek to encourage and lift one another up--especially in difficult times.
ACCOUNTABILITY – We will lovingly hold each other accountable to these shared values.
