The church in Ocean Park is a caring interfaith congregation that explores a broad range of spiritual teachings and practices in our services and events. We celebrate diversity, treating ourselves and others with respect. Our gatherings support, educate and challenge us in our relationships to self, others and the world. Embracing creative expression, singing at every opportunity and working for social justice are all parts of our spiritual life together. We empower children and youth, encourage lively discussion and cultivate shared leadership. We actively seek ways to make our own circle wider and to bridge the chasms that keep people apart in our community. - see more at: http://ciop4justice.org/content/mission-statement#sthash.yuffykoq.dpuf
