    We gather,
    our different paths entwined,
    to deepen our spiritual lives:
    nourishing connection,
    learning from each other,
    caring for each other,
    tending to our world.

    Meet Our Ministers

    Rev. Peter Farriday joins us for two years starting in August 2025 to help us discern our main needs and challenges, goals and desires, and together lay a solid foundation for the future, thriving with a new longer-term minister.

    Rev. Catherine (Cat) Boyle joined us in 2022. Embracing wonder, embracing curiosity and embracing life is her credo. Cat's background in theater shows up in her creativity in religious education, and infuses her worship with energy.

    Learn about all our ministers here.

    Justice Partner

    Justice Partner - United Effort

    The Justice Partner for September is United Effort

    United Effort helps homeless people find affordable housing and jobs, and access safety net programs every Saturday from 8:30-10:30 am, and every Wednesday from 8:00-9:00 am, as a complement to the meal, shower, and laundry programs at Hope’s Corner in Mountain View. They also provide job and computer literacy training.  United Effort is currently an all-volunteer organization.



    We gather on unceded, stolen land of the Tamien and Ramaytush people. We acknowledge these communities in the interest of truth and justice, awareness and gratitude. In order to dismantle the ongoing legacies of settler colonialism, we pledge to join the Tamien and Ramaytush people whenever they ask us for solidarity.
