Our values

you matter

Welcoming. Conversant. Safe.  Diverse.  Accomodating. John 13:34

We believe in creating a 3rd place community in which You Matter.

So what is 3rd Place?

To understand 3rd Place we need to define our first and second places. Our “first place” is the home and those that we live. The “second place” is the workplace, where people may spend most of their time. Third places, then, are “anchors” of community life and facilitate and foster broader, more creative interaction. (Ray O Oldenburg)
