Our Mission:

Connecting To Christ: To create a community of people who are called out of isolation, anonymity and autonomy into a life changing relationship with Jesus Christ.

Connecting To Christian Community: To continually strive to reach and shape the hearts and minds of the University Place Presbyterian Church community through corporate praise and worship, involvement in relational groups and the experience of transforming discipleship.

Connecting To The World: To consistently, thoughtfully and creatively engage the secular and global community in order to proclaim and bear witness to the Good News.

Our Vision:

To be a community of fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ demonstrating God's transforming love. At the core of University Place Presbyterian Church we value:

Extending Grace Grace was first extended to us by Jesus Christ. We all need God's pardon from sin and the good news of the gospel.

Biblical Authority We may hold differing views on peripheral matters, but we are agreed that our standard for measurement is the written word in the Bible.

Relational Ministry Being "present" with people is an essential element in expressing love to them. We think spiritual formation and discipleship happens best when people serve each other in "life on life" ministry.

Shared Leadership The most effective leadership relies upon teams.

Healthy Relationships Appropriate spiritual influence with others is founded upon characters and lifestyles of integrity.

Servanthood We must model our lives after the one who came not to be served, but to serve. It is in doing that we act out our love and faith.

Life Stewardship God is the giver of life, talent and possessions. All we have belongs to our Lord.

Legacy of Faith We value the ancient and varied traditions of the Faith. We delight in sensing God's spirit and truth in the work of the historic Church.

Spiritual Growth We seek to encourage all believers to maturity and many to leadership in God's kingdom.

Corporate Worship Our shared life radiates out from the times we join as the Body of Christ to worship together in song, prayer, confession the proclaimed words of the Bible and communion.

Kingdom Orientation Our priority is to discover, reveal and extend the presence of God's Kingdom.
